What is Debian package?
A Debian software package; conversion extracts its archive contents without installing software.
Server processing uses engines we host. Availability depends on the deployed engine and supported file variant.
Technical details
A Debian binary package is an ar archive containing control metadata and a data archive, commonly a compressed TAR payload. [1]
Background and compatibility
