Ok, thanks.  So, do you guys have any plans to make DV 1394 binaries
available?  I'm compiling my own right now, but I would prefer debianized
packages.  If you guys could provide the debian/ subdirectory or diffs that
were used to make the posted packages, that would also be useful.

As for unpacking .deb files, the preferred tool is dpkg-deb, which is part
of the dpkg package.  Sorry, I don't know of any tools with a smaller
footprint.
