Examples
  Realize a kick rpm snapshot of /home/jmrenouard/myrpmBuildDir
    MyRPM -v -d /home/jmrenouard/myrpmBuildDir -r
    /home/jmrenouard/myrpmBuildDir -N toto -V 1.0 -R 1 -b

  An other version
    cd /home/jmrenouard/myrpmBuildDir && MyRPM -v -d . -r . -N toto -V 1.0
    -R 1 -b

  The same with UNIX tools interaction
    cd /home/jmrenouard/myrpmBuildDir && find `pwd` -iname '*' -print |
    MyRPM -v -r /home/jmrenouard/myrpmBuildDir -N toto -V 1.0 -R 1 -b

    find /home/jmrenouard/myrpmBuildDir | MyRPM -r
    /home/jmrenouard/myrpmBuildDir -N toto -V 1.0 -R 1

  Explanations
    This script performs the following operations :

    Find build the list of all the files in /home/jmrenouard/myrpmBuildDir.

    MyRPM packages all the files /home/jmrenouard/myrpmBuildDir in a package
    with toto as name.

    MyRPM consider /home/jmrenouard/myrpmBuildDir as the root of all the
    files so all this files will be installed from the root file system by
    the rpm program.

  GPG signing all rpm file
    MyRPM --sign --password=truc *.rpm
  
  Repackage existing configuration
    rpm -ql yum | MyRPM -v -N yum -V 2.7 -R 1_jmr -b

  Explanations
    Rpm gives the list of the files in the yum package installed on the
    system.

    MyRPM packages all the files in a package with yum as name and 1_jmr as
    release.

    This is a new way to package modification on a installed system.

Others features as is
    This tools handles user and group creation. When building RPM, myrpm

    groups and users before installing files.

    MyRPM supports also symbolic links so that you can easy substitute
    "current" link after install.

    MyRPM is proven in production environment can build big RPM easily.

    javac.

    MyRPM supports pre and post install uninstall scripts.
