### Synopsis

Convert is an EXPERIMENTAL COMMAND - Attempts to convert packages/gems/apkbuild files into melange configuration files
								Check that the build executes and builds the apk as expected, using the wolfi-dev/sdk to test the install of built apk
								Dependencies are recursively generated and a lot of assumptions are made for you, there be dragons here.
