parentUpdate to 0.2.0. (diff)
Replaces existing code with a version that doesn't slurp the entire file
into memory and supports the newer bzip2 compressed rpms. Also, call it rpm2cpio.pl so that it doesn't conflict with the binary version from archivers/rpm. PR: ports/59980 Submitted by: Juergen Lock <nox@jelal.kn-bremen.de> (maintainer)

+Updated version by Sergey Babkin that doesn't slurp the entire file
+into memory and supports the newer bzip2 compressed rpms.
+
+BUGS: if the rpm contains more than one cpio file this version
+extracts only the first one. (I don't know how widespread these
+types of rpms are, i haven't yet seen one. If you do, try the
+binary rpm2cpio that comes with the archivers/rpm port.)
+
+Now called rpm2cpio.pl so that it doesn't conflict with the binary one.
