1.7.205 has minimal, I mean minimal, rpm support, already.
Look at /usr/bin/unrpm-- and /usr/man/unprm-- ("man unrpm--").
It basically will extract an rpm, nothing more.
If you need more rpm support, I can't help you myself, as I don't use the
rpm format or rpm packages, all I ever do personally is un-rpm the damn
things into cpio or tar archives so I can get at them.
You can just look at /usr/bin/unrpm--, it is an awk program.
