The primary interface for the dpkg suite is the `dselect' program; a more low-level and less user-friendly interface is available in the form of the `dpkg' command. . In order to unpack and build Debian source packages you will need to install the developers' package `dpkg-dev' as well as this one. Cheers, Rex
