The deb files are just ar archives (man ar). ar -x bla.deb gives you
(as well as some other stuff) a data.tar.gz. Just unpack that to
/mnt/newroot (not to / because than nothing will work anymore).

By the way, you are running apus? That means you also have an m68k
Linux running? If so, you can even crossinstall from m68k to powerpc
(when forcing dpkg to ignore the architecture). Together with --root
that saves you from haveing two ppc linux systems.
May the Source be with you.
