Use Alien to convert the rpm to a Debian package:

alien --scripts diamond_3_10-base_x64-111-2-x86_64-linux.rpm <br>diamond-3-10-base-x64_3.10-112_amd64.deb generated<br><br> |
Use dpkg to install the resulting deb package:

Use alien to convert the service pack(s) to Debian Packages, if you see things like “bad interpreter” then you may need to install things like csh, here is an example below:
