can you post a link? i've just been searching dag's site and rpmrepo.org for a while, and i can't find any such script. this would be very useful to me as well.
Here we go: http://svn.rpmforge.net/svn/trunk/tools/dar/dar-perl.py
I am sure Dag will appreciate feedback and info on the script.
I grabbed the file and tried it out to see what it would do. It dumped what looked like a spec file and then gave an error.
$ ./dar-perl.py Compress::Zlib

Any idea what happened here?
What exactly is this program supposed to do? Can someone give me an example of how to use it to install a Perl module and its dependencies?
