9 perl.prov [-v|--verbose] [FILE...]
10
12 This script calculates conventional name for each Perl source file
13 specified on a command line, based on its location relative to standard
14 Perl library paths; alternatively, a list of files is obtained from
15 standard input, one file per line. *.pm, *.pl, and *.ph files are
16 processed (*.pm files also suffer version extraction). The output of
17 perl.prov is suitable for automatic dependency tracking (e.g. for RPM
18 packaging).
19
20 For example, /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/DB_File.pm provides
21 "perl(DB_File.pm) = 1.810" (as of perl-5.8.6).
22
23 perl.prov is a counterpart of perl.req.
24
26 -v, --verbose
27 Increase verbosity.

29 The RPM_PERL_LIB_PATH environment variable, if set, must contain the
30 list of paths, separated by colons. These paths are considered as
31 library paths used to determine relative names of provided perl files
32 (in addition to paths from @INC variable).
