I have released a new version of makerpm.  Makerpm is software designed to turn 
perl modules into RPMs.

The new version has been tested on RPM 4 systems, and should work on earlier 
versions as well.

New features include -
         - automatic creation of description information
         - possibility to use install scripts
         - semi automatic detection of package documentation

This should gradually be making its way round to different CPAN mirrors 
worldwide. as

P.S. Makerpm is also meant to create PPMs.   I don't think I have
broken this, but given that I haven't tested it, I probably have. Please send 
'patch -u's to me if you would like to fix this.
