dctrl-tools 2.24-2build1 (ppc64el binary) in ubuntu bionic

 Debian package information is generally stored in files having a
 special file format, dubbed the Debian control file format (the dctrl
 format), a special case of the record jar file format. These tools
 operate on any files conforming in a general sense to that format and
