I try to rpm2cpio to convert to rpm file to regular file but it give me
ton of errors.

The utility "rpm2cpio" can be used to extract the files of the RPM into a
cpio archive.

For example:

$ rpm2cpio < xmms-2.4.rpm > xmms.cpio

The files can then be extracted from the cpio file using the "cpio" command.
For example:

$ cpio -i -d < xmms.cpio
