README for perl-macros

Author: Christian Wittmer <chris@computersalat.de>


%perl_gen_filelist generates an rpmlint happy filelist of your installed files

In most cases you only need to check the %doc part
sometimes there is a "Changes" or "ChangeLog",....

Requirements for %perl_gen_filelist
You have to define following parts inside your spec file

Example:

BuildRequires:  perl-macros

%install
%perl_make_install
%perl_process_packlist
%perl_gen_filelist

%files -f %{name}.files
%defattr(-,root,root)
%doc Changes README


And here an Example of the generated filelist:
