I have two questions:
1) when we summon something, do we make any attempt to unpack it, or
even see if we can unpack it? Or is all that unpacking stuff /only/
in the cast codepath?

2) if 1 is false we have a serious problem removing rpmunpack (as much
as I hate it so). otoh could we make function wrappers to rpmunpack and
cpio to do something vaguely more useful than just spew errors in the
unlikely event that a package is using rpms?
