I use alien to install OpenTx/Companion on Fedora alien -r companion22_2.2.3_amd64.deb companion22-2.2.3-2.x86_64.rpm generated However to avoid problems with "filesystem" rpm conflicts it is necessary to export EDITOR="/usr/bin/geany -i";rpmrebuild -pe ./companion22-2.2.3-2.x86_64.rpm and remove the problem entries (there may be a better way) John _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
