Error (not a valid deb file)

Information

I could be the package, but I've downloaded it 3 times and it still bombs. Made sure I was using the latest posted xdeb, not from the master. Deb file is softmaker-office-2021_1022-01_amd64

• options:
  output of env | grep XDEB - blank. I am running it from the usr/local/bin.
• version:
  either version, or commit id. ie: [9f69cf3, 1.2] release 4
• cmdline:
  command used to convert the package, including # ./xdeb -Sde softmaker-office-2021_1022-01_amd64.deb
• [ X] build failed
• [ ] installation failed

Describe the issue

The .deb file is in the /usrlocal/bin directory with xdeb. I installed all the listed xdeb dependencies. I did not set the xdeb pkgroot option, as it read like it was optional. This may very well be an error on my part... just thought this was the best place to get help. TIA!

xbps-install xz. I'll add it to the dependencies. Try not to have the deb package in /usr/local/bin, but in a directory your user has write access to, like ~/downloads

That works! Awesome utility, thanks for all your hard work!
