Note that dpkg itself is GPLed, so if you have a working version of dpkg, you almost certainly already have a copy of the GPL. (On a Debian system, the GPL's in base-files, which is essential). Note that if you want to get any use out of a deb (other than just look at how it's laid out, maybe), you almost certainly need to run it on a Linux system, and Linux is also GPLed (ditto Hurd).
