Небольшое лирическое отступление, формат очень сильно похож на rpm spec. Это сделано для облегчения миграции с rpm.
Пример номер 1( или простой пример). На основе пакета bbe (
http://alt.linux.kiev.ua/srpm/bbe/spec) из Сизифа:
%common
Name: bbe
Version: 0.1.8

%endcommon
%mainpackage

%description
The bbe program is a sed-like editor for binary files. bbe performs basic
byte related transformations on blocks of input stream. bbe is
non-interactive command line tool and can be used as a part of a pipeline.
bbe makes only one pass over input stream.
bbe contains also grep-like features, like printing the filename, offset
and block number.
