> cpio is just known to always be there.
Note that rpm itself does not use the external cpio command for anything at
all. The only reason rpm-build in Fedora depends on cpio is because nobody
thought to remove the dependency when the debuginfo-stuff got split.
While we've come to expect to cpio being always there, few packages actually
depend on it.
I'm not arguing for replacing, cpio is tiny enough that it hardly matters at
all. Just FWIW.
