How to extract a .DEB Package
11th June, 2010 - 8:35PM
DEB files are ar archives, which contain three files:
•debian-binary
•control.tar.gz
•data.tar.gz
Open WinSCP then add the .DEB file to
/var/root
Open Terminal
First, extract the aforementioned three files from the DEB file (ar archive):
Type: ar vx mypackage.deb
Then extract the contents of data.tar.gz using tar:
Type: tar -xzvf data.tar.gz
Close Terminal and two (.gz) files will be in the root folder
To extract them you have to download WinRAR Here
BTW my first wiki yay :D

Ok so now I see debian-binary, control.tar.gz and data.tar.gz for an application.
How do I make this back into a .DEB file on WIndows? Any guides for this?
