First off, the correct forum for these requests is debian-user@lists.debian.org, not debian-project. [You can read about appropriate subject material for each of the lists at lists.debian.org.] {I'm also pretty sure that this question has been covered before and exists in the archives of -user.} In answer to your question; ar x foo.deb tar -zxf control.tar.gz tar -zxf data.tar.gz will unar and untar the deb package. Alternatively, you could use 'dpkg-deb -x foo.deb' assuming you have dpkg installed. Don Armstrong -- Miracles had become relative common-places since the advent of entheogens; it now took very unusual circumstances to attract public attention to sightings of supernatural entities. The latest miracle had raised the ante on the supernatural: the Virgin Mary had manifested herself to two children, a dog, and a Public Telepresence Point. -- Bruce Sterling, _Holy Fire_ p228 http://www.donarmstrong.com http://www.anylevel.com http://rzlab.ucr.edu
