Just download the .deb and extract it.
Why, we are not running on zx80, trs-80, apple ][, vic20 or anything like that these days; disk is cheap and a few extra MBs isn't going to hurt anything today.
The WHOLE package is worth how many bytes? The installed size for the squeeze version is under 2MB, unless you need the ia64 version which is closer to 4MB [1]. What's the big deal? I don't think it's worth the effort of extracting it from the .deb file. Heck, I'm not even so sure this email is worth the effort ;-)
