François says:

It has been ported on rpm over Solaris by a previous worker of
MandrakeSoft with my help, I tried to keep the needed changes for the
actual version of Cooker.

It is clearly possible, as we try to make sure a standard rpm will work,
currently you need perl-URPM and urpmi and possible some others packages
which should be available with other distributions.

Please, if you want to do it, use cooker so that the changes will be
available for 9.2, as I will put in cvs everything that is necessary for
that.
