What is the point of doing three steps with intermediate files when a single step is enough? For decompressing and detaring, everybody knows how to use a pipe: unxz < data.tar.xz | tar x With GNU tar, "tar xJ" will call unxz automatically, and if the input is a file, "tar xf" will detect the compression. Furthermore, dpkg provides tools to handle deb packages: dpkg --fsys-tarfile /path/to/file.deb | tar x Regards, -- Nicolas George
