Most people use the Debian installer to unpack it. If you need to do so independently, you have two choices: * Use the fact that a .deb is just an ar archive containing a couple of .tar.gz files, and pick apart the pieces by hand. * Get one of the dpkg-$(version)_$(arch).nondebbin.tar.gz files in /debian/project/dpkg on Debian mirrors and unpack it in /. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
