I've been developing a script that creates SYSV packages from CPAN
sources using CPANPLUS. In the process, I've developed a few bits of
code that should be abstracted out into a seperate module so that
others (for example, alien <http://www.kitenet.net/programs/alien/>)
can use the code to create SYSV packages.
Related module namespaces I've found are:
Alien::Package -- Convert between various package formats.
Meta::Tool::Deb -- Something to do with debian archives?
RPM -- Perl wrapper for RPM API.
Software::Packager -- Abstract class for creating SYSV packages
RPMs, debs, etc.
I had thought of creating a SYSV:: namespace, but that seems a bit too
broad. Pkg::SYSV? Ideas?
Mark.
