Extract the deb package using ar, then untar data.tar.gz and use that
instead.
Installpkg uses an older version of tar (grep for ^TAR in /sbin/
installpkg) because it has certain behaviors pvolkerding wants.
However, it also has a problem where some long filenames gets
truncated. Thus the package created by rpm2targz does not work
correctly.
