DEB

DEBIN

A DEB is the installable package used by Debian, Ubuntu and the distributions built on them. It holds the program files next to the metadata that lists dependencies and describes what to run during installation. Underneath it is an archive, so converting one lets you read through the contents without installing anything.

TAR.

TAR.GZOUT

TAR.GZ wraps a TAR bundle in gzip compression, and the shorter .tgz ending means the same thing. Nearly every Linux system unpacks it with tools that are already installed, so source code and server backups travel this way. Choose it when you want a smaller file without waiting long for the archive to build.

Three steps, start to finish

STEP 01

STEP 02

TAR.GZ is preselected

This page is already set to write TAR.GZ. Switch the target if you change your mind.

STEP 03

Take the TAR.GZ

Grab the result the moment the job clears. Your upload is wiped straight afterwards.
