First, do a package listing to see what the file is called: rpm2cpio <package> | cpio -t | more ... or ... rpm -qlp <package> | more Next, pull the file from the package using a combination of rpm2cpio and cpio. Make sure to use the full path minus the leading slash: rpm2cpio <package> | cpio -ivd path/to/my/file Now, you have to do me a favor. Stop top-posting. :) P.S.
