Involved Projects and Packages
This package is based on the package 'grep' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
GNU grep, the "fastest grep in the west" (hopefully).
`grep' searches for lines matching a pattern.
This package is based on the package 'groff' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
The groff package provides compatible versions of troff, nroff, eqn,
tbl, and other Unix text formatting utilities.
Groff is used to "compile" man pages stored in groff or nroff format
for different output devices, for example, displaying to a screen or in
PostScript(tm) format for printing on a PostScript(tm) printer. Most
programs store their man pages in either /usr/share/man/ or
/usr/X11R6/man/.
This package is based on the package 'gzip' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
Gzip reduces the size of the named files using Lempel-Ziv coding LZ77.
Whenever possible, each file is replaced by one with the extension .gz,
while keeping the same ownership modes and access and modification
times.
This package is based on the package 'help2man' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
help2man is a script to create simple man pages from the --help and
--version output of programs.
Since most GNU documentation is now in info format, this provides a way
to generate a placeholder man page pointing to that resource while
still providing some useful information.
This package is based on the package 'insserv' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
Insserv enables an installed system init script (boot script) by
reading the comment header of the script and calculating the
dependencies between all scripts.
This package is based on the package 'less' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
less is a text file browser and pager similar to more. It allows
backward as well as forward movement within a file. Also, less does not
have to read the entire input file before starting. It is possible to
start an editor at any time from within less.
This package is based on the package 'libdb-4_5' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
The Berkeley DB Database is a programmatic toolkit that provides
database support for applications.
This package contains the necessary runtime libraries.
This package is based on the package 'libselinux' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
Security-enhanced Linux is a feature of the Linux® kernel and a number
of utilities with enhanced security functionality designed to add
mandatory access controls to Linux. The Security-enhanced Linux kernel
contains new architectural components originally developed to improve
the security of the Flask operating system. These architectural
components provide general support for the enforcement of many kinds of
mandatory access control policies, including those based on the
concepts of Type Enforcement®, Role-based Access Control, and
Multi-level Security.
libselinux provides an API for SELinux applications to get and set
process and file security contexts and to obtain security policy
decisions. Required for any applications that use the SELinux API.
This package is based on the package 'libsepol' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

libsepol provides an API for the manipulation of SELinux binary
policies. It is used by checkpolicy (the policy compiler) and similar
tools, as well as by programs like load_policy that need to perform
specific transformations on binary policies such as customizing policy
boolean settings.
This package is based on the package 'libunwind' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
A portable and efficient C programming interface (API) to determine the
call chain of a program.
This package is based on the package 'libxcrypt' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
Libxcrypt is a replacement for libcrypt, which comes with the GNU C
Library. It supports DES crypt, MD5, and passwords with blowfish
encryption.
This package is based on the package 'libzio' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
Libzio provides a wrapper function for reading or writing gzip or bzip2
files with FILE streams.
This package is based on the package 'linux-kernel-headers' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
This package provides Linux kernel headers, the kernel API description
required for compilation of almost all programs. This is the userspace
interface; compiling external kernel modules requires kernel-source
instead.
This package is based on the package 'm4' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
GNU m4 is an implementation of the traditional Unix macro processor.
This package is based on the package 'make' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
The GNU make command with extensive documentation.
This package is based on the package 'man' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
A program for displaying man pages on the screen or sending them to a
printer (using groff).
This package is based on the package 'mpfr' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
The MPFR library is a C library for multiple-precision floating-point
computations with exact rounding (also called correct rounding). It is
based on the GMP multiple-precision library.
The main goal of MPFR is to provide a library for multiple-precision
floating-point computation which is both efficient and has a
well-defined semantics. It copies the good ideas from the ANSI/IEEE-754
standard for double-precision floating-point arithmetic (53-bit
mantissa).
This package is based on the package 'ncurses' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
As soon as a text application needs to directly control its output to
the screen (if it wants to place the cursor at location (x,y) then
write text), ncurses is used. The panel and the forms libraries are
included in this package. These new libraries support color, special
characters, and panels.
This package is based on the package 'net-tools' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
This package contains essential programs for network administration and
maintenance: netstat, hostname, arp, ifconfig, rarp, and route.
This package is based on the package 'netcfg' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
All of the basic configuration files for the network programs including
/etc/aliases, /etc/protocols, and /etc/services.
These are often used by network routines in the C library and therefore
must be installed for all network programs.
This package is based on the package 'pam' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is a system security tool that
allows system administrators to set authentication policies without
having to recompile programs that do authentication.
This package is based on the package 'pam-modules' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is a system security tool that
allows system administrators to set authentication policies without
having to recompile programs that do authentication.
This package contains additional PAM Modules, which are necessary for a
working SuSE Linux System: pam_unix2, pam_pwcheck and pam_homecheck
This package is based on the package 'patch' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
The GNU patch program is used to apply diffs between original and
changed files (generated by the diff command) to the original files.
This package is based on the package 'pcre' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
The PCRE library is a set of functions that implement regular
expression pattern matching using the same syntax and semantics as Perl
5, with very few differences. The current implementation corresponds to
Perl 5.005.
This package is based on the package 'perl' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.
perl - Practical Extraction and Report Language
Perl is optimized for scanning arbitrary text files, extracting
information from those text files, and printing reports based on that
information. It is also good for many system management tasks. Perl is
intended to be practical (easy to use, efficient, and complete) rather
than beautiful (tiny, elegant, and minimal).
Some of the modules available on CPAN can be found in the "perl"
series.
