rpm2cpio - Extract cpio archive from RPM Package Manager (RPM) package.
rpm2cpio [filename]
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
