chrooted debian :

dpkg install package.deb

pdaX :

ar -x package.deb
tar czvf package.ipk ./control.tar.gz ./data.tar.gz ./debian-binary
ipkg install package.ipk

Note DEB packages may not work directly under pdaX, you may also need to tweak some files in control.tar.gz

It should be in binutils (I guess ...)
And yes, it's ar -x, not ar -p
