rpm2cpio8
Extract cpio archive from rpm package manager (rpm) package.
Usage
rpm2cpio [filename]
Overview
rpm2cpio converts the .rpm file specified as a single argument to a cpio archive on standard out. If a '-' argument is given, an rpm stream is read from standard in.
Note: the CPIO format cannot host individual files over 4GB in size, and so this tool is considered obsolete. Use rpm2archive instead.
rpm2cpio glint-1.0-1.i386.rpm | cpio -dium
cat glint-1.0-1.i386.rpm | rpm2cpio - | cpio -tv
