Perché convertire PKG in RPM?
A .pkg contains Mach-O executables targeting the macOS kernel and Apple system libraries, alongside macOS filesystem paths like /Applications and /Library. An .rpm expects ELF binaries, Linux filesystem paths, and Linux package dependencies. Repackaging the Mac binaries into an RPM header produces an archive that installs files that cannot execute on Linux.
