I want to have xzm module of mariadb-5.5.32-i486-1.txz for SMPlayer, so I used Convert tgz/txz to xzm..., and
Conversion complete! message appeared, however, I can not find mariadb-5.5.32-i486-1.xzm anywhere.
Is this bug? :unknown: Any solution?
If terminal command works for the conversion, please let me know.

Hi:

If I want to avoid that situation (I've been there) I work the conversion at the directory where I want the module:

1.- Open a terminal
2.- Change to the Directory where the .txz module is: cd /path/to/the/directory
3.- use the txz2xzm command: txz2xzm mariadb-5.5.32-i486-1.txz mariadb-5.5.32-i486-1.xzm

Regards

@RamonTavarez Hola!

Thank you for your step-by-step instruction! The following message appeared in Terminal.

Verifying package mariadb-5.5.32-i486-1.txz.
xz: (stdin): Unexpected end of input
Unable to install /tmp/usm/mariadb-5.5.32/mariadb-5.5.32-i486-1.txz: tar archive is corrupt (tar returned error code 2)
error installing /tmp/usm/mariadb-5.5.32/mariadb-5.5.32-i486-1.txz package

Therefore, I downloaded the txz package again, and tried your command base conversion. The result is still unsuccessful.
Update
I found mariadb-5.5.32-i486-1.txz @slackware.cs.utah.edu, so I downloaded it without using USM.
Then I used the txz2xzm command as you suggested. The result is very successful. Muchas Gracias!
Without knowing that tar archive is corrupt, I wouldn't be able to get this result. Thank you, RamonTavarez!
