DESCRIPTION
usage: scap-as-rpm [-h] [--pkg-name PKG_NAME] [--pkg-version PKG_VERSION]

[--rpm-destination RPM_DESTINATION] [--srpm-destination SRPM_DESTINATION] FILE [FILE ...]
Takes given SCAP input(s) and makes an RPM package that contains them. The result RPM can be installed using # yum install ./pack-
age-name-1-1.rpm which will put the contents into /usr/share/xml/scap. No dependency on openscap or scapworkbench is enforced in the output
package so you can use any SCAP-capable scanner to evaluate the content.
positional arguments:
FILE List of files that should be put into the result package. These should be SCAP XML files but such requirement is not enforced.
optional arguments:
-h, --help
show this help message and exit
