           and the swbis libexec program lxpsf.

### IDENTIFICATION

            Date: 2003-03-11.  Copying Terms: GNU GPL
            Identification: Implementation  extension  administration  program  of
           swbis.

### BUGS

           No  temporary  files  are  used in the conversion process, just lots of
           memory.  This capability was created as a testing  tool  of  swpackage.
           It seems to convert without any error messages about 95% of binary RPMs
           and nearly 100% of source RPMs.  The accuracy of the file  or  metadata
           after conversion has not been exhaustively confirmed.

                                                                      rpm2swbis(1)
