Another, better, way to set up the rpm build tree is to install the rpmdevtools package and run the "rpmdev-setuptree" script that it provides.  That adds a hidden ~/.rpmmacros config file that is used by the rpm builder tools.


rpmdevtools was already on my workstation and up-to-date.

I removed the .tmp and rpmbuild directories.
I removed the old 4kvideodownloader-4.13-6.x86_64.rpm file.

I ran rpmdev-setuptree; it re-created the rpmbuild directory with the 5 empty sub-directories. It also created the .rpmmacros file.

I ran the alien command; it seemed to work.
I ran the rpmrebuild command and did the edit that you suggested. I got over 1100 error messages. I pasted them into a text file "output_1213.txt" and uploaded the file onto the google drive. It is here:
"https://drive.google.com/file/d/10kS4TuCC6Aj9ToNjYBgz1nPHrvkZ3wXr/view?usp=sharing";.
There seems to be a huge number of files missing and not found.

Are there any steps missing between downloading the deb file from the web site and running the alien command?

Are there any steps missing between the alien command and the rpmrebuild command?
