SUN SGD on Debian Lenny

Surprizingly enough SSGD installs fine on a debian lenny system.

Probably you have to
sudo aptitude install libmotif3
Then convert the rpm package to a debian one:
alien --scripts tta-4.50-907.i386.rpm
Make same necessary symbolic links:
ln -s /usr/lib/libXm.so.3.0.2 /usr/lib/libXm.so
ln -s /usr/lib/libexpat.so.1.5.2 /usr/lib/libexpat.so.0
Install the package:
dpkg -i tta_4.50-908_i386.deb
There is a minor error message that AFAICT does not cause any problems:
pythagoras:~# dpkg -i tta_4.50-908_i386.deb
Selecting previously deselected package tta.
(Reading database ... 24510 files and directories currently installed.)
