Package: dpkg
Version: 1.10.26
Severity: wishlist

dpkg-deb uses option  --vextract, -X to 

  ...prints a listing of the  files  extracted  as  it  goes, while --extract 
(-x)

In most of the programs this is the action of --verbose option. Perhaps it 
would be
mo consistent to offer:

   --verbose --extract          aka -v -x

Instead of the current action. If the current option cannot be
changed, perhaps new option

   --verbose

Could be added.
