Description Need Real Name 2001-12-10 14:40:26 UTC 
When creating (s)rpm's from perl modules I use a slightly
modified version of the cpanflute script found in the
rpm-build-4.0.3-1.03 package.

The purpose of the `macro-ization' of the generated spec file 
is to minimize the changes people need to make to the spec file
when they update a package in between redhat releases.

Please do a diff with /usr/lib/rpm/cpanflute and change what you like.

Comment 2 Jeff Johnson 2002-02-24 17:28:27 UTC 
rpm-4.0.4 contains a cpanflute2 script that
will be used in the future. In addition,
this script will end up in a CPAN package,
not in rpm-build in the future, so I'm gonna
assign to the guy who wrote cpanflute2.
Comment 3 Bill Nottingham 2005-09-29 21:45:31 UTC 
Closing bugs on older, no longer supported, releases. Apologies for any lack of
response.

For RPM issues, please try a current release such as Fedora Core 4; if bugs
persist, please open a new issue.
