Introduction to Cpio

The cpio package contains tools for archiving.

Non-Multilib

Compile the package:

sed -i "s/invalid_arg/argmatch_invalid/" src/mt.c &&
patch -Np1 -i ../cpio-2.6-security_fixes-1.patch &&
./configure CPIO_MT_PROG=mt --prefix=/usr \
    --bindir=/bin --libexecdir=/tmp \
    --with-rmt=/usr/sbin/rmt &&
echo "#define HAVE_SETLOCALE 1" >> config.h &&
echo "#define HAVE_LSTAT 1" >> config.h &&
make

Install the package

make install

Multilib

This package does not provide any libraries so only one installation is needed.
