Notes to Future Self

Install .deb on Fedora 20

To install a debian package, you first need to convert it from a .deb package to a .rpm package (you may need to install alien first via sudo yum install alien which installs a bunch of perl modules...)
 >$ alien -r package.deb 

Then do the standard yum install:
 >$ sudo yum localinstall package.rpm
