DESCRIPTION
The cvegenversdat script is a distribution-agnostic script that
attempts to generate version matching rules for the files fed to it
through standard input. It is commonly called from a distribution-specific
script (like cverules_gentoo).
USAGE
"COMMAND USAGE"
The command requires the following arguments to be set:
0.2i packagename is the name of the package (like "gzip")
0.2i packageversion is the (upstream) version of the tool, not of the distribution (so "1.4" rather than "1.4-r1" or "1.4-yourdistro-1")
0.2i conffile is the cvechecker configuration file (like "/etc/cvechecker.conf")
0.2i breakon (literally) tells the script to stop the moment a match is already found within the existing cvechecker database. Without the "breakon" string, the script will scan all passed files, even if a few of them are already known to cvechecker.
The script should not be called by end users but is rather a script to be called by the distribution-specific scripts like cverules_gentoo.
