It was a script written by Carlos Morimoto, the author 
of Kurumin, a Brazilian Linux distro based on Kanoppix 
(which is based on Debian). I'm not using the script. 
I just look at it to know what commands were necessary 
to create another script specific for statist.

We can have total control over the debian package with 
the script.

For the second step, the convertion into rpm, I'm 
asking "alien" to just create the directory and spec 
file, which have to be manually edited before building 
the package.

The packages are working. I installed and uninstalled 
them in both Fedora Core 2 and Kurumin. I'm sending 
the script as an attachment, so you can make 
suggestions to improve it. The "man page" is inside 
the script. Although it's not formatted, it's 
correctly displayed.

I tried the link, but I got an error with both firefox 
and wget.

Is there something like tex2texinfo ?
