If you have the package, you can do "dpkg -c package.deb".

If you don't have the package, you can do "apt-get -d install package" to get the package (I would imagine that would grab the dependencies as well). And then you can do "dpkg -c package.deb".

Debian packages end up in /var/cache/apt/archives.

I need to see the list of files in an uninstalled package. The rpm equiv would be

rpm -qpl foo.rpm

Anyone know how to do this? Is there anything?

TIA
