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. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.=
