RPM stands for Red Hat Package Manager and is a free and open-source package management system for Linux distributions. Primarily, it was created for Red Hat distributions, such as Debian and Ubuntu, but is also used by other Linux distributions, including Fedora, CentOS, AlmaLinux, and others. The RPM packages are downloaded in .rpm file format. In the following paragraphs, we will outline two methods for installing the RPM packages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Installing RPM packages is a straightforward process that may take a couple of minutes. Let&#8217;s get started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-transparent ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69eca6d602097\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"ez-toc-cssicon\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69eca6d602097\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-rpm-packages-on-debian-13\/#Prerequisites\" >Prerequisites<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-rpm-packages-on-debian-13\/#Update-the-System\" >Update the System<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-rpm-packages-on-debian-13\/#What-is-Alien\" >What is Alien?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-rpm-packages-on-debian-13\/#Install-RPM-packages-with-Alien\" >Install RPM packages with Alien<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-rpm-packages-on-debian-13\/#Install-RPM-packages-with-a-converted-DEB-package\" >Install RPM packages with a converted DEB package<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-rpm-packages-on-debian-13\/#More-About-the-Alien-Software-Tool\" >More About the Alien Software Tool<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Prerequisites\"><\/span>Prerequisites<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/debian-vps-hosting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">server running Debian<\/a> 13 OS<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>User privileges: root or non-root user with sudo privileges<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Update-the-System\"><\/span>Update the System<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we begin installing RPM packages, we will update the system packages to their latest versions. To do that, execute the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo apt update -y &amp;&amp; sudo apt upgrade -y<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What-is-Alien\"><\/span>What is Alien?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we proceed with the installation of the RPM packages, we must install a software tool called Alien, which is required for the direct installation of the RPM packages or for converting them to a deb package first and then installing the RPM package as a deb package. This is because Debian does not support RPM packages; therefore, we need additional software to assist with installation on this OS. The RPM support on Debian can only be added using the <strong>Alien<\/strong> software tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To install <strong>Alien<\/strong>, execute the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo apt install alien -y<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the process is complete, check the installed Alien version:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">alien -V<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>The output should be similar to this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">root@host:~# alien -V\nalien version 8.95.8\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Install-RPM-packages-with-Alien\"><\/span>Install RPM packages with Alien<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned in the previous paragraph, RPM packages for Debian 13 or older Debian Linux distributions can be installed directly using the Alien command or by converting them to deb packages. In this section, we will focus on direct installation with Alien and the -i option, which refers to installing the package generated by the command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, we will download the Google Chrome software, for example, as an RPM package:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">wget https:\/\/dl.google.com\/linux\/direct\/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Once downloaded, install it with the command below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo alien -i google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Install-RPM-packages-with-a-converted-DEB-package\"><\/span>Install RPM packages with a converted DEB package<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The second method for installing the RPM package on Debian is to convert the RPM package into a DEB package. To do this, we also use the alien command, but this time without any options and flags. To do that, execute the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo alien google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>After this command, there will be a .deb file generated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">google-chrome-stable_137.0.7151.55-2_amd64.deb\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, to install it, you can use the following command in your terminal:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_137.0.7151.55-2_amd64.deb<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"More-About-the-Alien-Software-Tool\"><\/span>More About the Alien Software Tool<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to learn more about the <strong>alien<\/strong> command and all its options, you can type the alien command without any options, and there will be output like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">root@host:~# alien\nYou must specify a file to convert.\n\nUsage: alien [options] file [...]\n  file [...]                Package file or files to convert.\n  -d, --to-deb              Generate a Debian deb package (default).\n     Enables these options:\n       --patch=      Specify patch file to use instead of automatically\n                            looking for patch in \/var\/lib\/alien.\n       --nopatch        Do not use patches.\n       --anypatch           Use even old version os patches.\n       -s, --single         Like --generate, but do not create .orig\n                            directory.\n       --fixperms           Munge\/fix permissions and owners.\n       --test               Test generated packages with lintian.\n  -r, --to-rpm              Generate a Red Hat rpm package.\n      --to-slp              Generate a Stampede slp package.\n  -l, --to-lsb              Generate a LSB package.\n  -t, --to-tgz              Generate a Slackware tgz package.\n     Enables these options:\n       --description= Specify package description.\n       --version=  Specify package version.\n  -p, --to-pkg              Generate a Solaris pkg package.\n  -i, --install             Install generated package.\n  -g, --generate            Generate build tree, but do not build package.\n  -c, --scripts             Include scripts in package.\n      --target=       Set architecture of the generated package.\n  -v, --verbose             Display each command alien runs.\n      --veryverbose         Be verbose, and also display output of run commands.\n  -k, --keep-version        Do not change version of generated package.\n      --bump=number         Increment package version by this number.\n  -h, --help                Display this help message.\n  -V, --version            Display alien's version number.\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s it. You successfully installed the RPM package in two different ways on Debian 13 OS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, you don\u2019t have to install it on your own if you have difficulties and you are not familiar with Linux.
