hello, just in case it's useful : to adapt ultracopier_1.4.0.3-1_amd64.deb, I had to change the script /us/bin/debtap in line 148 from :

ar p "$package_with_full_path" control.tar.gz | tar xz to ar p "$package_with_full_path" control.tar.xz | tar -Jx

that's all folks

Do I need /var/cache/debtap/* files? It takes 1.1 GB.

Use the github latest version, or wait a couple of days for 3.0

Not trying to rush you !!

This script was necessary to get Manjaro to run on my Alpha Litebook -- it needs a couple of debs to be installed for trackpad and wifi.

Thanks !!

Patience people, I'm working on next version

The version at github (https://github.com/helixarch/debtap) has an updated script which seems to work.
