NAME

srpmtool - a swiss army knife of src.rpm/.spec file manipulation.

SYNOPSIS

see srpmtool --help

DESCRIPTION

srpmtool unpacks src.rpm file(s) if given as argument, applies user specified actions to their .spec files and writes new changed src.rpms or spec files. There is a rich set of built-in actions, including raising release, (The style of raising release is selected by --nextrel option, for example, --nextrel incr or --nextrel nmu), setting tags such as Url: or Epoch:, renaming the main package or its subpackages, disabling subpackages, applying patches to spec or sources, loading user specified editing subroutines (hooks) and so on, see --help for the list.

By default, srpmtool without any option changes nothing.
