I am having trouble parsing rpm filenames in a shell script.. I found a snippet of perl code that will perform the task but I really don't have time to rewrite the entire script in perl. I cannot for the life of me convert this code into something sed-friendly:

regcmp(3) Library Functions Manual regcmp(3)NAME
regcmp, regex - Compile and execute regular expression
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc.so, libc. a)
SYNOPSIS
#include <libgen.h>
char *regcmp( const char *string1, ... /*, (char *)0 */);
char *regex( const char *re, const char *subject, ... );
STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:
regcmp(), regex(): XPG4-UNIX
Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags.
PARAMETERS
Points to the string that is to be matched or converted. Points to a compiled regular expression string. Points to the string that is to
be matched against re.
DESCRIPTION
The regcmp() function compiles a regular expression consisting of the concatenated arguments and returns a pointer to the compiled form.
The end of arguments is indicated by a null pointer. The malloc() function is used to create space for the compiled form. It is the
responsibility of the process to free unneeded space so allocated. A null pointer returned from regcmp() indicates an invalid argument.
The regex() function executes a compiled pattern against the subject string. Additional arguments of type char must be passed to receive
matched subexpressions back. A global character pointer, __loc1, points to the first matched character in the subject string.
The regcmp() and regex() functions support the simple regular expressions which are defined in the grep(1) reference page, but the syntax
and semantics are slightly different. The following are the valid symbols and their associated meanings: The left and right bracket,
asterisk, period, and circumflex symbols retain their meanings as defined in the grep(1) reference page. A dollar sign matches the end of
the string;
matches a new line. Used within brackets, the hyphen signifies an ASCII character range. For example [a-z] is equivalent
to [abcd...xyz]. The - (hyphen) can represent itself only if used as the first or last character. For example, the character class
expression []-] matches the characters ] (right bracket) and - (hyphen). A regular expression followed by a + (plus sign) means one or
more times. For example, [0-9]+ is equivalent to [0-9][0-9]*. Integer values enclosed in {} braces indicate the number of times the pre-
ceding regular expression can be applied. The value m is the minimum number and u is a number, less than 256, which is the maximum. The
syntax {m} indicates the exact number of times the regular expression can be applied. The syntax {m,} is analogous to {m,infinity}. The +
(plus sign) and * (asterisk) operations are equivalent to {1,} and {0,}, respectively. The value of the enclosed regular expression is
returned. The value is stored in the (n+1)th argument following the subject argument. A maximum of ten enclosed regular expressions are
allowed. The regex() function makes its assignments unconditionally. Parentheses are used for grouping. An operator, such as *, +, or
{}, can work on a single character or a regular expression enclosed in parentheses. For example, (a*(cb+)*)$0.
Since all of the symbols defined above are special characters, they must be escaped to be used as themselves.
NOTES
The regcmp() and regex() interfaces are scheduled to be withdrawn from a future version of the X/Open CAE Specification.
These interfaces are obsolete; they are guaranteed to function properly only in the C/POSIX locale and so should be avoided. Use the POSIX
regcomp() interface instead of regcmp() and regex().
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the regcmp() function returns a pointer to the compiled regular expression. Otherwise, a null pointer is
returned and errno may be set to indicate the error.
Upon successful completion, the regex() function returns a pointer to the next unmatched character in the subject string. Otherwise, a
null pointer is returned.
