Get a copy of the RPM::Specfile module from CPAN, building and installing 
it according to its README file:

<http://search.cpan.org/~chipt/RPM-Specfile-1.17/>

At that point you'll have installed a script called cpanflute2. Now build 
RPM's from CPAN modules with syntax like this:

cpanflute2 --buildall IO-stringy-2.109.tar.gz
