rpmsort - Sort input by RPM Package Manager (RPM) versioning

rpmsort FILES

rpmsort(8) sorts the input files, and writes a sorted list to standard out - like sort(1), but aware of RPM versioning.

If '-' is given as an argument, or no arguments are given, versions are read from standard in and written to standard out.
