malformed-deb-archive
The binary package is not a correctly constructed archive. A binary
Debian package must be an ar archive with exactly three members:
debian-binary, control.tar.gz, and one of
data.tar.gz, data.tar.bz2 or data.tar.xz
(or data.tar.zst on Ubuntu) in exactly that order. The
debian-binary member must start with a single line containing the
version number, with a major revision of 2.
