Try it with `file': it will usually tell you what kind of file you're
looking at. `ipkg' packages have used various formats over time, the
ones I remember are .tar.gz and ar. In bith cases, the content is a few
meta files plus a .tar.gz (so you stupidly get double compression if the
outer wrapper is .tar.gz).
