I'm trying to install hamachi [1] on Debian (arm).
I want the smallest install I can get away with, but at the moment I'm getting the following dependencies: alien at autopoint bc binutils build-essential bzip2 cpp cpp-4.4 cups-bsd cups-client cups-common debhelper dpkg-dev fakeroot g++ g++-4.4 gcc gcc-4.4 gettext gettext-base git html2text intltool-debian libalgorithm-diff-perl libalgorithm-diff-xs-perl libalgorithm-merge-perl libc-dev-bin libc6-dev libcurl3-gnutls libdpkg-perl libelf1 liberror-perl libgmp3c2 liblua5.1-0 libmail-sendmail-perl libmpfr4 libnspr4-0d libnss3-1d librpm1 librpmbuild1 librpmio1 libstdc++6-4.4-dev libsys-hostname-long-perl libtimedate-perl libunistring0 linux-libc-dev lsb-core lsb-release m4 make manpages-dev ncurses-term patch pax po-debconf rpm rpm-common rpm2cpio time
It installs and runs OK but I don't want all that stuff on my box afterwards!
Seeing alien in the list makes me conclude that this is a repackaged rpm and maybe that's what's causing the problem. However if I try to "apt-get remove alien" afterwards, hamachi gets removed.
What are my options to work around this?
Unfortunately Hamachi is not free and therefore I don't have access to the source.
