cover V2: Fix rpm2cpio segment fault

Hi Mark,

As my last mail on Apr 12 mentioned, not only macro "_dbpath" need to be defined. Macros "_dbi_config*" are needed too, and they can't be simply assigned some value.

I think parse config files first could be a workaround to fix rpm2cpio segment fault error for now.

Thanks,
Kai

PATCH 1/1 rpm: fix rpm2cpio segmentation fault

When run rpm2cpio, it fails with segmentation fault. The root cause is no macros "_db_path" and "_dbi_config*" defined, when query these macros get nothing then cause segment fault.

Add patch to parse macro files first to fix this problem.

[YOCTO #3656]

+Parse config files first to fix this bug. If parse fails, give a warning.
