Two choices for installing.
1. Acquire and convert the RPM to DEB
2. Compile from source

Check here for resources < sarrazip.com/dev/cosmosmash.html>

1. One simple way for DEB systems is to install the dependencies and convert and install the RPM to DEB using alien in a terminal
$sudo apt-get update
$sudo apt-get install libflatzebra
$sudo alien -di cosmosmash-1.4.5-1.i686.rpm

===================================================================
2. How to Compile cosmosmash from source in Ubuntu (and possibly other NIXum)
===================================================================
$sudo apt-get install libflatzebra-dev checkinstall

Download the latest cosmosmash source code from sarrazip.com/dev/cosmosmash.html

These directories may need to be created first. It harms nothing to run this command anyway.
$sudo mkdir /usr/local/share/pixmaps /usr/local/share/applications /usr/local/share/doc /usr/local/share/sounds

Enter the directory where you extracted the cosmosmash source and build the project*
make clean
./configure
make

Use your package manager to remove any older version of cosmosmash you have*
Now to install*
$sudo checkinstall -Dy --pkgname cosmosmash-mybuild --arch i386

Check install will create a deb file with a name simular to cosmosmash-mybuild_1.4.5_i386.deb (based on the pkgname you chose and the version)
Use "--arch amd64" with checkinstall if you built for 64-bit (and are not on 64-bit).
Use "-Sy" to build a Slackware package
Use "-Ry" to build an RPM package
Slackware and RPM have additional options that can be infestigated with:
$man checkinstall

*These steps must be done every time to compile from source.
