There isn't any official dpkg rpm in Fedora, yet.  But it is currently
being reviewed: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/550582 .  Perhaps that
will help get you started.

On the few occasions I've wanted to create .deb packages or test
things on Debian, I've found it worthwhile (and relatively painless)
to do just that.  Having a virtual machine made it easy to determine
that the packages I created would work well on Debian.

No, I'm not skilled in chroot-solution ;-(

Hi,

dpkg is currently under review :
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=550582
Did you think about a chroot-solution like debootstrap (in the repos), no to
use virtualization solutions?

dpkg for building deb package from Fedora

2010-01-04 Thread AlannY
Hi there. I'm a developer. I can build RPM package of my software in Fedora 
with rpmbuild.
But now, I want to build deb package for redistributing my software on 
Debian-based distros.

I think, I need dpkg tool for building deb file. But where to find it? I tryed 
to search all over the
net, but articles just tells me how to setup deb file in Fedora (I don't want 
to setup, just to build).

I can create another Virtual Machine for Debian-based distros, but I REALLY 
don't want to do it.

Thanks.
