|  Converting a RPM file to a TAR file outside of redhat Oracle is only offering me a .RPM file. I am running Linux Gentoo and I was wondering how I convert a RPM file to a TAR file. Thanks.

| I figured it out. RedHat comes with a KPackage that will load a RPM file. Gentoo has a terminal command, RPM2TAR that will convert a rpm file to a tar file.
