+.SH NAME
+rpmgraph \- Display RPM Package Dependency Graph
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.PP
+
+
+\fBrpmgraph\fR \fB\fIPACKAGE_FILE\fB\fR\fI ...\fR
+
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBrpmgraph\fR uses \fIPACKAGE_FILE\fR arguments
+to generate a package dependency graph. Each
+\fIPACKAGE_FILE\fR argument is read and
+added to an rpm transaction set. The elements of the transaction
+set are partially ordered using a topological sort. The partially
+ordered elements are then printed to standard output.
+.PP
+Nodes in the dependency graph are package names, and edges in the
+directed graph point to the parent of each node. The parent node
+is defined as the last predecessor of a package when partially ordered
+using the package depndencies as a relation. That means that the
+parent of a given package is the package's last prerequisite.
+.PP
+The output is in \fBdot\fR(1) directed graph format,
+and can be displayed or printed using the \fBdotty\fR
+graph editor from the \fBgraphviz\fR package.
+There are no \fBrpmgraph\fR specific options, only common \fBrpm\fR options.
+See the \fBrpmgraph\fR usage message for what is currently implemented.
