Well, the plan is to make the dpkg-deb interface more formalized. What I mean, is being able to use it in a filter, with plugging input and output.
Ie, multiple input methods: .deb, .rpm, filesystem
filter mode: standard tar output
output mode: filesystem, .deb, .rpm
Repacking and editting then become easy to do.
Is there web page for such plans? I couldn't find anything useful with Google.
