rpm -qpl kernel-default-2.6.31.5-0.1.1.src.rpm
shows:
---
patches.addon.tar.bz2
patches.apparmor.tar.bz2

patches.drivers.tar.bz2
patches.fixes.tar.bz2
patches.kabi.tar.bz2

patches.suse.tar.bz2
patches.trace.tar.bz2

But when I extract or install this rpm (unrpm
kernel-default-2.6.31.5-0.1.1.src.rpm)
those patch files are not there. Why?
