Here are some tips for those wanting to run Password Safe on Linux
distro's other than Debian and Ubuntu.
I used Alien - a Perl script that converts one package manager format to
another - to convert the Ubuntu DEB packages to RPM's. This allowed me
to run both Ubuntu versions on openSUSE 11.3 32 bit. Version 0.1-1
worked well and 0.3 worked even better.
But since then, I moved to a new machine running openSUSE 11.3 64 bit.
Now the RPM's won't build because there are so many missing libraries
and I can't find them in the repositories.
So for now I'm back to running Password Safe under Wine - which I've
been doing since version 2.16 back in '06! It works really well under
Wine. In fact, I used to be the Super Maintainer for Password Safe at
WineHQ.. About the only functions that don't work are the ability to
open a login page in your browser and auto-login.
