I have a package which has bug, and i need to modify it, and repack it, So thats how i am doing. Is there any other quick methods?
List/View only (drivers files or applications)
ar tv DesktopVideo-8.0.1-amd64.deb
rw-r--r-- 0/0 4 Sep 25 07:35 2011 debian-binary
rw-r--r-- 0/0 14942208 Sep 25 07:35 2011 control.tar.gz
rw-r--r-- 0/0 102 Sep 25 07:35 2011 data.tar.gz
Extract
ar x DesktopVideo-8.0.1-amd64.deb
control.tar.gz data.tar.gz debian-binary
Extract tar.gz
tar xvfz control.tar.gz
tar xvfz data.tar.gz
;; modify my codes and updates
Repack/Rebuild this back
mkdir -p debian/DEBIAN
; step 1
cp -R ./debian-binary debina/DEBIAN
cp -R ./control debian/DEBIAN
cp -R ./control debian/DEBIAN
cp -R ./control debian/DEBIAN
; step 2
cp -R ./etc debian/DEBIAN
cp -R ./usr debian/DEBIAN
Make .DEB now
; this is how the skeleton look like before applying --build
root@desktop:~/Downloads/test# ls
control.tar.gz data.tar.gz debian debian-binary etc usr
root@desktop:~/Downloads/test# dpkg-deb --build debian
dpkg-deb: building package `desktopvideo' in `debian.deb'.

# dpkg -i DesktopVideo-8.0.1-amd64.deb
