14 Description: A statically-linked version of the ext2 filesystem checker.
15 This may be of some help to you if your filesystem gets corrupted enough
16 to break the shared libraries used by the dynamically linked checker.
18 This binary takes much more space than its dynamic counterpart located
21 You may want to install a statically-linked shell as well, to be able
22 to run this program if something like your C library gets corrupted.

31 Description: The Common Error Description library - headers and static libraries.
32 libcomerr is an attempt to present a common error-handling mechanism to
33 manipulate the most common form of error code in a fashion that does not
34 have the problems identified with mechanisms commonly in use.

42 Description: Command-line interface parsing library - headers and static libraries.
43 This package includes a tool that parses a command table to generate
44 a simple command-line interface parser, the include files needed to
45 compile and use it, and the static libs.
47 It was originally inspired by the Multics SubSystem library.

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

71 Description: A stripped-down versions of e2fsprogs, for boot-floppies
72 This package is an e2fsprogs package built for a reduced size, so that
73 it can help to save space on installation boot-floppies.
75 Don't attempt to install this package, it has no support for a couple of
76 features you surely want. Anyway it should refuse to install.

85 Description: The EXT2 file system utilities and libraries.
86 EXT2 stands for "Extended Filesystem", version 2. It's the main
87 filesystem type used for hard disks on Debian and other Linux systems.
89 This package contains programs for creating, checking, and maintaining EXT2
90 filesystems, and the generic `fsck' wrapper.

100 Description: The headers and static libraries for ext2fs-aware tools-development.
101 EXT2FS stands for "Extended Filesystem", version 2. It's the filesystem
102 type used for hard disks on Debian and other Linux systems.
104 This package contains the headers and shared libraries needed to compile
105 ext2fs-aware programs. Only programmers that really manipulate
106 features specific to the ext2 filesystem will need this. Most
107 programmers will use the generic filesystem-independent interface
110 It also contains dev files for the e2p lib used by
111 the e2fsprogs, but which is not yet packaged all by itself
112 because it lacks documentation. It may also lack some support
113 files, by I can't really know until someone uses it...
115 libe2p is for user-level e2fsprogs commands. It's used by dumpe2fs,
116 chattr, and lsattr. Functions in libe2p typically have two
117 characteristics (a) don't require that block device containing the
118 filesystem be opened directly (functions in libext2fs do), and (b)
119 libe2p typically contains printf statements or parse user input, and so
120 have more internationalization issues.
