How to INSTALL rpm package in Linux MINT

What is RPM ?

  • RPM stands for Red Hat Package Manager. It was developed by Red Hat and is primarily used on Red Hat-based Linux operating systems
  • Is just another package format used mainly by Red Hat and its derivatives like CentOS.
  • Luckily, an alien tool permits us to set up an RPM file on Ubuntu or convert an RMP file into a Debian package file. Practically, anything from one Linux distribution can be done on another with a change in approach.
