Installing RPM files

[Moltke]

rpm is only for fedrola distro and assuming that you are running linuxlite we are based on ubuntu which is also based on debian so you need to download a .deb version

For Ubuntu, or Ubuntu-based distros (which includes Linux Lite), you will need software that has a *.deb file extension.
For a list of distros, that use software with the *.rpm file extension, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:R...tributions

RPM files are for Red Hat and OpenSUSE based distros; Fedora, CentOS, Scientific Linux, Oracle Linux, ClearOS and a few others.  I've never used them myself but there's a couple of apps which seems capable to allow installing RPM files in Ubuntu/Debian based distros:
Alien:  "Alien converts an RPM package file into a Debian package file or Alien can install an RPM file directly"
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RPM/AlienHowto
Debbuild: " It uses the build process and command-line options of rpmbuild, but produces packages that will install on Debian systems."
https://github.com/ascherer/debbuild
Checkinstall: "keeps track of all the files created or modified by your installation script, builds a standard binary package (.deb, .rpm, .tgz) and installs it in your system giving you the ability to uninstall it with your distribution's standard package management utilities."
https://wiki.debian.org/CheckInstall

They've  been around for quite a while now and like I said I've never used any of them since I've never needed to install a RPM on an Ubuntu/Debian system but as far as I read, many people claim they work.

Hope this helps!
