Reference bug#31179 comment#3

Go to my Image folder

bsdtar -c -f ~/archtar *
examined archtar with ark, all files and folders checked OK

cd ~/tmp
bsdtar -x -f  ~/archtar

Files and folder are duplicated

rpm2cpio ~/rpmfile.rpm|bsdcpio -idmv

extract with success the content of the rpm

Looks OK for me
