Debian-based systems such as Ubuntu and RedHat-based systems such as CentOS are mostly similar in their design. However, there are a few differences here and there. For example, RedHat-based systems use .rpm files for representing software packages, while Debian-based systems use .deb files. These file types differ from one another in their design, and cannot be installed outside of their respective type of operating systems (e.g. installing a .deb file on CentOS, or installing a .rpm file on Ubuntu). However, there are ways to port these packages to other types of systems. <strong>Installing RPM packages on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/ubuntu-hosting\/\">Ubuntu VPS<\/a><\/strong> is a fairly easy task if you carefully follow the guide below. Let&#8217;s get started!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>There are two ways to install an RPM package: either by converting the .rpm file into a .deb file or by installing the .rpm file directly. Both methods are fairly simple, but installing RPM packages on a Debian-based system can lead to some issues, depending on the software being installed (more on this down below).

In order to install Alien, you will need to add a software repository called \u201cUniverse\u201d.

Go to the folder where your .rpm file is located. Once you have the .rpm file ready, simply run the command:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo alien &lt;name of package&gt;.rpm<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-5-install-the-converted-package\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-5-Install-the-Converted-Package\"><\/span>Step 5: Install the Converted Package<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It may take a moment for the file to convert. Once it is done, install the file normally by using dpkg:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo dpkg -i &lt;name of package&gt;.deb<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It should install like a regular .deb package file.

Simply run the following command once you are in the same folder as the RPM package you wish to install.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo alien -i &lt;name of package&gt;.rpm<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Give it a minute, and it should be installed on your system with no issues.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-7-possible-issues\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-7-Possible-Issues\"><\/span><b>Step 7: Possible Issues<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-28224\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Installing-RPM-Packages-On-Ubuntu.jpg\" alt=\"Installing RPM Packages On Ubuntu\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Installing-RPM-Packages-On-Ubuntu.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Installing-RPM-Packages-On-Ubuntu-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Keep in mind that it typically isn\u2019t a good idea to install packages that were not meant for your system. It can lead to dependency issues and can cause errors or even crash. If the software you are installing has some dependencies that need to be installed, you will need to install these first.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>All of these converted packages only increase the chance of the software not functioning properly, so do this at your own risk. If there is no available .deb substitute, then compiling the source code on your machine might be a better choice when possible.
