We will need to convert a RPM package to DEB package, so do this.
sudo apt-get install alien
Now download BitPim from the original website, yes the RPM version.
And convert the RPM to DEB, by entering the following:
sudo alien -d bitpim*.rpm
It will take a few seconds, to convert and it will notify when it finishes.
Now let's install it:
sudo dpkg -i bitpim*.deb
Once installed run it by entering bitpim on the console.
ERRORS:
