Installing Screenconnect on IGEL thin client

I am looking to install Screenconnect onto an IGEL thin client. The way it works is a config file calls out to a tar.bz2 file. The problem is when you build an installer there is no option to build it as this file type. Is it possible to have this done? Has anyone been able to successfully convert a .deb file to .tar.bz2?

Thank you.
