A parser (in the attoparsec sense of the term) that constructs RPM records. The parser can be run against a ByteString of RPM data using any of the usual functions. parse and parseOnly are especially useful:

import Data.Attoparsec.ByteString(parse)
import qualified Data.ByteString as BS
s <- BS.readFile "some.rpm"
result <- parse parseRPM s

The Result can then be examined directly or converted using maybeResult (for converting it into a Maybe RPM) or eitherResult (for converting it into an Either String RPM). In the latter case, the String contains any parse error that occurred when reading the RPM data.
