@knc1: I happen to have lsb-release installed (it's a mumble dep, IIRC)

.

I do not have alien & co, though, but I did catch the configure script complaining about it. I don't think it matters unless you actually want to build deb or rpm packages of the binary TC.

And, yeah, libarchive (or p7zip) can handle rpm & deb just fine

. There's also an eclass in Gentoo that handles those through more conventional tools (IIRC, there's cpio involved somewhere in one or both of those).
