Description Kristoffer Grundström 2012-04-22 12:58:01 CEST
Description of problem: autospec creates spec-files used by the Red Hat Package Manager in building RPM packages.
It uses the information it can determine (from a Makefile, manual pages, an LSM file, etc.) to fill in the proper spec-file fields.
This allows a human packager to use the generated spec-file as an almost complete template to quickly create an RPM-package from a typical source or binary archive.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.8

I know that this package seems old, but the purpose is nevertheless worth it.

For Imprudence as an example.
