SYNOPSIS

       spectool [<options>] <specfile>

DESCRIPTION

       Spectool is a tool to expand and download sources and patches from specfiles.

       If you experience problems with specific specfiles, try to run

	      rpmbuild --nobuild --nodeps <specfile>

       on  the	file which might give a clue why spectool fails on a file (ignore anything about missing sources or patches). The plan is to catch
       errors like this in spectool itself and warn the user about it in the future.

       -l, --lf, --list-files
