Description
MC always expects to see CPIO content inside RPM packages. However, it is also possible for RPM packages to contain TAR payload (ustar, to be more precise).
You can find an example of such rpm here - http://bugs.rosalinux.ru/show_bug.cgi?id=2612
When trying to open such package, mc crashes.
The fix is rather simple, since rpm2cpio works correctly for such files (but it produces tar archives, not cpio ones).
