this is like saying windows 10 and 11 are completely different operating systems that can’t run the same .exes
except windows binaries are actually forward compatible.
even with the most popular distros, for example if you tried to take a typical gui program from say, ubuntu 22, and run it on ubuntu 24, it won't work. even worse for other distros.
Also Linux's package ecosystem are not cross compatible.
Bro do you even alien?
I didn't know about alien, that is pretty cool.
However this bit from the readme is hilariously on brand for Linux:
"To use alien, you will need several other programs. Alien is a perl program, and requires perl version 5.004 or greater. If you use slackware, make sure you get perl 5.004, the perl 5.003 in slackware does not work with alien!
To convert packages to or from rpms, you need the Red Hat Package Manager; get it from Red Hat's ftp site. If your distribution (eg, Red Hat) provides a rpm-build package, you will need it as well to generate rpms.
If you want to convert packages into debian packages, you will need the dpkg, dpkg-dev, and debhelper (version 3 or above) packages, which are available on http://packages.debian.org"
