.SH NAME
rpmdeps \- Generate RPM Package Dependencies
.PP
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBrpmdeps\fR <operation> [options]
.PP
\fBrpmdeps\fR <operation> [options] \fIFILE\fR .\&.\&.\&
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBrpmdeps\fR generates package dependencies for one or more files, received
either as a list of filenames on the standard input, or command line
arguments.\&
.PP
\fBrpmdeps\fR is not normally invoked directly, but doing so can be useful for
troubleshooting dependency generation and developing new dependency generators.\&
The installation directory of \fBrpmdeps\fR can be determined with
\fBrpm \-E "%{_rpmconfigdir}"\fR.\&
.PP
Note that the actual \fBrpmdeps\fR command is only used for automatic dependency
generation in a legacy compatibility mode of \fBrpmbuild\fR(1).\&
