rpmlint is a tool to check common errors on rpm packages. rpmlint can
be used to test individual packages before uploading or to check an
entire distribution. By default all checks are processed but specific
checks can be performed by using command line parameters.
rpmlint idea comes from the lintian tool of the Debian project.
