16 Description: The EXT2 file system utilities and libraries.
17 EXT2 stands for "Extended Filesystem", version 2. It's the main
18 filesystem type used for hard disks on Debian and other Linux systems.
20 This package contains programs for creating, checking, and maintaining EXT2
21 filesystems, and the generic `fsck' wrapper.
26 Depends: ${libcdev:Depends}, libcomerr2

30 Description: The Common Error Description library - headers and static libraries.
31 libcomerr is an attempt to present a common error-handling mechanism to
32 manipulate the most common form of error code in a fashion that does not
33 have the problems identified with mechanisms commonly in use.
38 Depends: ${libcdev:Depends}, libss2
39 Conflicts: e2fsprogs (<< 1.10-6)
41 Description: Command-line interface parsing library - headers and static libraries.
42 This package includes a tool that parses a command table to generate
43 a simple command-line interface parser, the include files needed to
44 compile and use it, and the static libs.
46 It was originally inspired by the Multics SubSystem library.

55 Description: Universally unique id library - headers and static libraries.
56 libuuid generates and parses 128-bit universally unique id's (UUID's),
57 using a standard which is blessed by both Microsoft and DCE, and is
58 being proposed as an internet standard. See the internet-draft:

72 Description: The headers and static libraries for ext2fs-aware tools-development.
73 EXT2FS stands for "Extended Filesystem", version 2. It's the filesystem
74 type used for hard disks on Debian and other Linux systems.
76 This package contains the headers and shared libraries needed to compile
77 ext2fs-aware programs. Only programmers that really manipulate
78 features specific to the ext2 filesystem will need this. Most
79 programmers will use the generic filesystem-independent interface
82 It also contains dev files for the e2p lib used by
83 the e2fsprogs, but which is not yet packaged all by itself
84 because it lacks documentation. It may also lack some support
85 files, by I can't really know until someone uses it...
87 libe2p is for user-level e2fsprogs commands. It's used by dumpe2fs,
88 chattr, and lsattr. Functions in libe2p typically have two
89 characteristics (a) don't require that block device containing the
90 filesystem be opened directly (functions in libext2fs do), and (b)
91 libe2p typically contains printf statements or parse user input, and so
92 have more internationalization issues.
