I don't have any familiarity with creating RPMs or debs. I was actually quite surprised that the Debian team was able to package up the WDG HTML Validator so nicely. Sometime I'll take a look at the RPM docs and give that a go... The Offline HTMLHelp.com Validator [1] shouldn't be hard to package up with some RPM knowledge. The online validator will be trickier because it's dependent on so many Perl modules and other utilities; perhaps it's worth trying Alien [2] on the Debian package.
