CHANGES

http://lists.rpm.org/pipermail/rpm-announce/2020-June/000079.html

DESCRIPTION
This is the popt(3) command line option parsing library. While it
is similar to getopt(3), it contains a number of enhancements, including:

         1) popt is fully reentrant
         2) popt can parse arbitrary argv[] style arrays while
            getopt(3) makes this quite difficult
         3) popt allows users to alias command line arguments
         4) popt provides convenience functions for parsing strings
            into argv[] style arrays
