Parse::RPM::Spec is a Perl module which models RPM spec files.
Parse::RPM::Spec uses the standard Perl module architecture and can therefore be installed using the standard Perl method which, in brief, goes something like this:
gzip -cd Parse-RPM-Spec-X.XX.tar.gz | tar xvf - cd Parse-RPM-Spec-X.XX perl Build.PL ./Build ./Build test ./Build install
Where X.XX is the version number of the module which you are installing.
You can also install it using either the CPAN shell (cpan) or the CPANPLUS shell (cpanp). RPMs of this package will be available at http://rpm.mag-sol.com/.
All of the documentation is currently in POD format in the Parse.pm file. If you install the module using the standard method you should be able to read it by typing:
perldoc Parse::RPM::Spec
at a comand prompt.
The latest version of this module will always be available from CPAN.
