Some help here would be appreciated...
I'm thiiiisssss close [gestures with eensy-weensy space between finger and thumb]
We have [I believe] all the necessary dependecies covered...right down to "deb farm" catalogue libgtk1.2-dev and libglib1.2-dev
I just can't for the life of me figure out what I'm doing wrong in turning the gtkgep rpm and libgtkgep0 rpm into armel's.
I'm past stumped...
either I'm doing something wrong or omitting an important something-something in the process

Well ..thought I'd try something.....
fired up old Bessy...(one of my n800's with turbo and easy deb squeeze)
managed to get alien on it..
managed to convert the original gtkgep and libgtkgep rpms into generated i386.debs
and it isn't like I don't know where to look ...but I'll be durn'd if I can find where alien dumped the generated debs for me to fiddle with...
nary a Debian file anywhere...

Hmmm...
well after screaming and pleading at old Bessy....
finally got them into i386.debs...
my brain is turning to fudge as you read this...
I've muddled through this far...
but this isn't really my forte..
and can't say I'll be able to wrench it into an armel..
