| Hello,
Does anyone know of a howto or tutorial on creating RPMs from regular tarballs
of perl modules?
Thanks,
Gerald

A quick and dirty solution is to install the perl module the normal way, get
the contents of .packlist and put that in the spec file. With empty %build
and %install sections and the contents of .packlist in the %files section
you can quickly build a rpm package. Otherwise you can download various
..src.rpm packages for perl modules from various linux ditributions and see
how it may be done.
