Im currently tasked to do a sort of proof of concept stuff to install
a Legato backup server in Ubuntu 5.10. The binaries ( rpm) i used were
originally for RHEL3 for 686 platform and converted each using alien
which created the deb packages for 386. All other packages installed
successfully except for the last one which incurred this error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/ubuntu/linux_x86# dpkg -i lgtoserv_7.2-1_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 58179 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking lgtoserv (from lgtoserv_7.2-1_i386.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing lgtoserv_7.2-1_i386.deb (--install):
trying to overwrite `/usr/sbin/networker.cluster', which is also in package
lgtoclnt
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Your immigrant package just tried stepping on another package's files
(in this case, lgtoclnt's) which dpkg catches and promptly bails you out
from naturalizing that immigrant. This is probably due to the `alien'
program not correctly placing the right files to the right packages upon
RPM naturalization, so you might have to do some other magic to
transform RPMs to DEBs.
Anyway, have you seen the Debian System Administrator's Guide writeup on
this?[0] Looking at the above, it seems that you're installing both a
Legato client and sever in the same box, which explains the dpkg
conflict, so alien may have really done the right thing...
