Unpacking a .rpm file

Hi

Just found out that BLFS provides all the tools needed to unpack a .rpm 
file :
- from p7zip : 7z e file.rpm
this produces a file named file.cpio
- from libarchive : bsdcpio -idmv < file.cpio
this unpacks the contents of the package in the current folder.

OK, this may be well known for you BLFS folks.

With best regards.
