Description: The EXT2 file system utilities.
13
EXT2 stands for "Extended Filesystem", version 2. It's the main
14
filesystem type used for hard disks on Debian and other Linux systems.
16
This package contains programs for creating, checking, and maintaining EXT2
17
filesystems, and the generic `fsck' wrapper.
19
This release may break older versions of dump and quota.

Description: The Common Error Description library - shared libraries.
26
libcomerr is an attempt to present a common error-handling mechanism to
27
manipulate the most common form of error code in a fashion that does not
28
have the problems identified with mechanisms commonly in use.
30
It is mainly used by the EXT2-filesystem tools.

Description: "Sub-System" library for simple command-line interface parsing - shared libs
37
This package contains the shared libs to support command-line
38
interface parsers generated with the ssg-dev package.
40
It was originally inspired by the Multics SubSystem library.

EXT2 stands for "Extended Filesystem", version 2. It's the filesystem type

used for hard disks on Debian and other Linux systems.

This package contains shared libraries needed by the utility programs.

Description: "Sub-System" library for simple command-line interface parsing - devel. files
72
This package includes a tool that parses a command table to generate
73
a simple command-line interface parser, the include files needed to
74
compile and use it, and the static libs.
76
It was originally inspired by the Multics SubSystem library.

Description: The headers and static libraries for ext2fs-aware tools-development.
87
EXT2FS stands for "Extended Filesystem", version 2. It's the filesystem
88
type used for hard disks on Debian and other Linux systems.
90
This package contains the headers and shared libraries needed to compile
91
ext2fs-aware programs. Only programmers that really manipulate
92
features specific to the ext2 filesystem will need this. Most
93
programmers will use the generic filesystem-independent interface
96
It also contains dev files for 2 other libs (e2p and uuid) used by
97
the e2fsprogs, but which are not yet packaged all by themselves
98
because they lack documentation. They may also lack some support
99
files, by I can't really know until someone uses them...
101
libe2p is for user-level e2fsprogs commands. It's used by dumpe2fs,
102
chattr, and lsattr. Functions in libe2p typically have two
103
characteristics (a) don't require that block device containing the
104
filesystem be opened directly (functions in libext2fs do), and (b)
105
libe2p typically contains printf statements or parse user input, and so
106
have more internationalization issues.
108
libuuid generates and parses 128-bit universally unique id's (UUID's),
109
using a standard which is blessed by both Microsoft and DCE, and is
110
being proposed as an internet standard. See the internet-draft:
