NAME

SYNOPSIS

9       spectool [<options>] <specfile>
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Spectool  is  a  tool  to  expand and download sources and patches from
13       specfiles.
14
15       If you experience problems with specific specfiles, try to run
16
17              rpmbuild --nobuild --nodeps <specfile>
18
19       on the file which might give a  clue  why  spectool  fails  on  a  file
20       (ignore  anything  about  missing  sources  or patches). The plan is to
21       catch errors like this in spectool itself and warn the user about it in
22       the future.
