NAME
RPM - Perl interface to the API for the RPM Package Manager
SYNOPSIS
use RPM;
$pkg = new RPM "file.arch.rpm";
DESCRIPTION
At present, the package-manipulation functionality is not yet implemented. The RPM::Database and RPM::Header packages do provide access to the information contained within the database of installed packages, and individual package headers, respectively.
DIAGNOSTICS
Direct binding to the internal error-management of rpm is still under development. At present, most operations generate their diagnostics to STDERR.
CAVEATS
This is currently regarded as alpha-quality software. The interface is subject to change in future releases.
