Binary package hint: alien

On Ubuntu 10.10, alien 8.81 tries to build a .deb from a .rpm and reports success. However, the .deb file doesn't exist. The same build was working on Karmic.

One example is here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1692981

Another example is building the FX printer driver from RPM for use with Dell 1320c.
