Can .deb files be used on other Linux distributions?

0116

.deb files are specifically designed for Debian-based distributions, such as Debian, Ubuntu, and their derivatives. While some other Linux distributions may have tools that can handle .deb files (like alien for converting them to other formats), they are not natively supported on non-Debian-based systems (like Fedora, CentOS, or Arch Linux).

Using .deb files on non-Debian systems can lead to dependency issues and is generally not recommended unless you convert them to a compatible format.
