i see some txz2xzm folders, eg txz2xzm19159.
but i don't see any xzm files.

maybe the conversions failed, tho' i did get a successful-conversion message.

The XZM file usually appears next to the original RPM file.

pretty sure rpm2xzm needs the development module 05-devel.xzm]05-devel.xzm to work, or at least the binutils package.. got that wrong :)
same goes for deb2xzm..

This next step is optional - you can set the directories in your package

Would you like to reset all directory permissions to 755 (drwxr-xr-x) and
directory ownerships to root.root ([y]es, [n]o)? n

If this is not the case for you then you need to go back to fresh mode with nothing else loaded and see what's up.

It means I had no trouble converting your RPM file from a root console with no 05-devel.xzm module loaded. It works with a standard porteus install.
