Running ubuntu 7.04 - wishing to install vym-1.10.0 (came out sept 2007).

I can only assume that it wasn't early enough to be included in gutsy...
had a look in the archives and was hoping i could install gutsy. As it
seems a number of folk have had problems with gutsy i thought i would
just stay with feisty [which has been fine with no problems so far]!

I'd be grateful if someone could check that i'm doing the correct procedure!

sourceforge.net/.../showfiles.php\
elease_id=542721

downloaded to desktop the file vym-1.10.0-18.i586.rpm
[or should i use vym-1.10.0tar.bz2 and not convert to debian?]

installed alien

in terminal type
$alien -c vym-1.10.0-18.i586.rpm # -c tells it to remove any
installation or removal scripts
[Should then have a .deb package?]

$sudo dpkg vym-1.10.0-18.i586.deb

[it can't be that easy - i wanted to check before i mess up somehow!
What about other dependencies]
