 Well, it would have, but I found out two things in the mean time:

 1. Rpm *is* supported on Ubuntu, but it is deprecated in favor of:

 2. Conversion via alien.

 So, I installed alien, converted all the rpms to .debs, modified my
 installer shell (that installed all the rpms in a working order) to do
 the .debs instead, and it seems to work fine except, as I've
 complained about before:

 The desktop integration doesn't work.

 Actually, there is no desktop-integration package for Debian systems,
 so I just go through Nautilus manually and tweak the settings from OOo
 to LO and all is well in the world.

 Thanks.

As noted there are 'deb' packages. There is a  'desktop-integration' package 
included , does debian menu's.

On the page, scroll down below the download buttons and you will see 
BitTorrent and below that you will see (32-bit .debs or 64-bit .debs).

You can download from there.
