Is there a way to extract the contents of an rpm file (to, say, a temp

source code of a particular module driver that's bound up in the rpm,
but I don't want to install the kernel source -- probably wouldn't
work anyway since I'm working from a cygwin host right now.

# yum install fedora-rpmdevtools
$ fedora-extract package-version-release.rpm

Extracts to a directory package-version-release of the current directory.
