NAME

       makedeltarpm - create a deltarpm from two rpms

SYNOPSIS

       makedeltarpm [-v] [-V version] [-z compression] [-m mbytes] [-s seqfile] [-r] [-u] oldrpm newrpm deltarpm
       makedeltarpm [-v] [-V version] [-z compression] [-s seqfile] [-u] -p oldrpmprint oldpatchrpm oldrpm newrpm deltarpm

DESCRIPTION

       makedeltarpm  creates  a  deltarpm from two rpms. The deltarpm can later be used to recreate the new rpm from either filesystem data or the
       old rpm. Use the -v option to make makedeltarpm more verbose about its work (use it twice to make it even more verbose).

       If you want to create a smaller and faster to combine "rpm-only" deltarpm which does not work with filesystem data, specify the -r option.

       makedeltarpm normally produces a V3 format deltarpm, use the -V option to specify a different version if desired. The -z option can be used
       to specify a different compression method, the default is to use the same compression method as used in the new rpm.

       The -s option makes makedeltarpm write out the sequence id to the specified file seqfile.

       If  you	also  use  patch rpms you should use the -p option to specify the rpm-print of oldrpm and the created patch rpm. This option tells
       makedeltarpm to exclude the files that were not included in the patch rpm but are not byteswise identical to the ones in oldrpm.

       makedeltarpm can also create an "identity" deltarpm by adding the -u switch. In this case only one rpm has to  be  specified.  An  identity
       deltarpm can be useful to just replace the signature header of a rpm or to reconstruct a rpm from the filesystem.

MEMORY CONSIDERATIONS

       makedeltarpm  normally  needs  about  three to four times the size of the rpm's uncompressed payload. You can use the -m option to enable a
       sliding block algorithm that needs mbytes megabytes of memory. This trades memory usage with the size of the created deltarpm. Furthermore,
       the uncompressed deltarpm payload is currently also stored in memory when this option is used, but it tends to be small in most cases.

NAME

       scap-as-rpm - manual page for scap-as-rpm

DESCRIPTION

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

	      [--pkg-release   PKG_RELEASE]   [--pkg-summary  PKG_SUMMARY]  [--pkg-license  PKG_LICENSE]  [--pkg-scap-location	PKG_SCAP_LOCATION]
	      [--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

       --pkg-name PKG_NAME
	      Name of the RPM package, if none is provided the basename of the first SCAP input is used. Ex.: xyzsecurity-guide

       --pkg-version PKG_VERSION

       --pkg-release PKG_RELEASE

       --pkg-summary PKG_SUMMARY
	      Optional short description of the package.

       --pkg-license PKG_LICENSE
	      Short name of the license that you want to publish the package under. Ex.: GPLv2+, BSD, ...

       --pkg-scap-location PKG_SCAP_LOCATION
	      Folder where SCAP files are supposed to be installed.  Each package will have its own folder inside this folder. RPM  variables  can
	      be used and will be expanded as usual. It is recommended to keep the default settings.

       --rpm-destination RPM_DESTINATION
	      The folder (absolute or relative to CWD) where the result RPM shall be saved.

       --srpm-destination SRPM_DESTINATION
	      The folder (absolute or relative to CWD) where the result SRPM shall be saved.
