I'm not sure what you mean with "exploading" but I guess you're looking for src/archives.c and src/processarc.c in dpkg. > To proceed > well with remaining steps we need your very valuable informations about > which is the most suitable package management program to modify the source > for the success of stowfs . I don't know anything about stowfs (except a quick search on the internet right now) but it's probably something that you want to deal at the dpkg level. At least because I expect you will want to extract somewhere else than / while still comparing to / to make up the various decisions of what to install on how to install it.
