From the developer:
Unpkg does not touch you system at all except for the folder where the unpacking takes places. Because it does not move files around in your system (on purpose), you should not use unpkg to install, say, incremental OS X updates. But if you just need to get a kext from that package, for example, then unpkg is exactly what you need.
You may want to check out more software for Mac, such as Super Empty Trash or MagicanPaster, which might be similar to unpkg.
