You may be interested in Mezzanine: http://beta.kainx.org/wiki/view/Mezzanine It handles both CVS and SVN (the latter only in 1.9, though) and is used as the sole build and package maintenance tool for the entire Caos Linux distro (www.caoslinux.org). It was designed specifically for doing package and distro maintenance under version control. > I just took a look at the contents page for the Cervisia manual, and > it doesn't mention RPM at all.

Mezzanine contains perlpkg which makes it quite easy to package CPAN modules. Michael -- Michael Jennings (a.k.a.
