After a few minutes, here's a hack. You need yum-utils installed to
get yumdownloader. Please don't blame me if this sucks.
#!/bin/sh -x
DIR=yumlook.$$.$RANDOM
PKG=$1
FILE=`pwd`/$1
cd /tmp
mkdir $DIR
pushd $DIR
yumdownloader $PKG
# Should only be one file in this directory
rpm2cpio $PKG* | cpio --quiet --no-absolute-filenames -idmv 2>&1
$SHELL
popd
rm -rf /tmp/$DIR
For grins, here's another hack that works on local files and needs
nothing (save RPM) installed:
DIR=rpmlook.$$.$RANDOM
FILE=`pwd`/$1
cd /tmp
mkdir $DIR
pushd /tmp/$DIR
rpm2cpio "$FILE" | cpio --quiet --no-absolute-filenames -idmv 2>&1
$SHELL
popd
rm -rf /tmp/$DIR
