Hello David,

I don't want to bother you,but did you read my first message ? You replied only to the second one and I don't know if you have read or understood the first one. I ask because it seems there may be some other problems explained there. Do you want to give it a look ? Thank you very much.

Have you read https://github.com/mate-desktop/engrampa/issues/191

You may be working outside the limits of defined behaviour
when you create .cpio files with duplicate entries. That's
doesn't make much sense when you intend to distribute the
product to other people/systems.

Cheers,
