关于cpio: 文件非正常终止(cpio: premature end of file)

On an FC5 system, I downloaded mlocate-0.12-1.2.src.rpm and did the following

steps:



rpm2cpio mlocate-0.12-1.2.src.rpm > ml

cpio -idv < ml



I got the error message "cpio: premature end of file"



If I do this on FC4, it works fine.  I did a cmp on the output of the rpm2cpio

for FC4 and FC5, and they matched perfectly, so the problem clearly lies in

cpio.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cpio-2.6-14.FC5





How reproducible: always



Steps to Reproduce: shown above



Actual results: error message



Expected results: no error message



Additional info: "ldd /bin/cpio" gives the following:

        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0x005bf000)

        libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x00251000)

        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x007fc000)



        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x007db000)

update your cpio, it is fixed in cpio-2.6-15.FC5

Confirmed fixed, and thanks!

Hi,







The problem is the "-idcmv" option of the cpio command.



You should use "-idmv":







# cpio -idmv < lnx_920_disk1.cpio



# cpio -idmv < lnx_920_disk2.cpio



# cpio -idmv < lnx_920_disk3.cpio







Cheers,

1,cpio解压:cpio -idcmv < <filename>

cpio: premature end of file报错 去掉选项c即可
