Most people use the Debian installer to unpack it. If you need to do so
independently, you have two choices:
* Use the fact that a .deb is just an ar archive containing a couple
of .tar.gz files, and pick apart the pieces by hand.
* Get one of the dpkg-$(version)_$(arch).nondebbin.tar.gz files in
/debian/project/dpkg on Debian mirrors and unpack it in /.
