   Hi

   SliTaz has debian-ar and wget and can so manage Debian-deb's.

   (but «ar» seems not to be easy to find :-( . it is not in SliTaz-base...)

   How to transfer a deb > Slitaz package?

   In this (french) guide, I over-convert debian packages:

   I hope it helps.

   Happy slitaz

   Hi

   Thank you for both answer, but it was as far not exactly my question, that I wish to change somewhat in the *deb doing that.

   It is the reason why

   a1/ I need to find where is debian-ar (because I will do that mainly in Slitaz base and there is no «ar» in Slitaz base)

   a2/ if «ar» is perhaps in a bigger SliTaz package, how to extract only ar?

   b/ I need to use ar to unpack the Debian package really properly.

   c/ Only after changing the content it is possible to continue, change / adapt the content, and build my own Slitaz package.

   thank you for the happy SliTaz and same for you both!

   Note: How to mark a thread as «solved»?

   dpkg-deb is busybox applet to list or extract deb package contents.
   Usage: dpkg-deb [-cefxX] FILE [argument
   Perform actions on Debian packages (.debs)
   -c List contents of filesystem tree
   -e Extract control files to [argument] directory
   -f Display control field name starting with [argument]
   -x Extract packages filesystem tree to directory
   -X Verbose extract

   ar is busybox-applet
   busybox is in slitaz-base

   Hi Mojo

   Thank you very much. I will try this way

   kind rgds

   PS: ar is busybox-applet
   busybox is in slitaz-base
   I suppose not in all SliTaz... (in rolling as actually install by me it is a link to i486-slitaz-linux-ar and copyed in also linux'es, it also works. ok! as a lot of other linux'es have busybox-applet, it is perhaps possible. but in slitaz base, it did not start...) I am not in base actually, I will look later if I can find the link and i486-slitaz-linux-ar!

   Hi Oui
   I was wrong, ar is in binutils not busybox.

   # tazpkg -gi binutils
