deb(5) documents version 0.93.  You'll have to ask Ian to fix the
update page for version 2.0.

pointer to a definition of the debian format

[Susan G. Kleinmann]

Can someone specify for me a document (either within /usr/doc or on 
the WWW somewhere) that says exactly what the internals of a .deb file 
look like?

I need (want?) this for the FAQ.  Though users might not _need_ to know what
the format is, I believe that people would like at least to think that
they know what they're dealing with.
