    installed in order to build modules that use the Build.PL and
    Makefile.PL scripts (both Module::Build and Module::Build::Tiny are
    supported).

    In order to build the rpm, you need the rpmbuild program.

    This script also relies on the strace program. This is necessary because
    many Makefile.PL and Build.PL scripts are interactive so when you run
    them, they hang waiting for input. Unfortunately, I was not able to find
    any pure perl way to run a program as a child (or in a thread) and
    monitor it to see if it's still running because it's doing work, or
    still running because it's waiting on user input. Though somewhat crude,
    strace can be used to determine that.

    In order to sign packages, you must have the gpg program installed, and
    you must have a key set up to sign with. In order to do this
    non-interactively, you also need either the Expect module or the expect
    program installed.

    In order to install the package, you either must be running as root, or
