Perhaps

    1) cpio archives, at least with some versions of cpio, can include, along
with file attributes, capability bits;

    2) we're setting the appropriate capability bits on dumpcap in the RPM so
that it can capture traffic without having to run as root;

    3) cpio is unpacking onto a file system that doesn't support capability
bits, or something such as that.

What type of file system is /install/bin on?  (For example, what do "mount" and
"df /install/bin" print?)
