executes commands at intervals specified in days. Unlike cron, it does
not assume that the system is running continuously. It can therefore be
used to control the execution of daily, weekly, and monthly jobs (or
anything with a period of n days), on systems that don't run 24 hours a
day. When installed and configured properly, Anacron will make sure that
the commands are run at the specified intervals as closely as machine
uptime permits.

The event MPM is designed to allow more requests to be served
simultaneously by passing off some processing work to supporting threads,

Each Apache Multi-Processing Module provides a different "flavour" of web
server binary, compiled with a different processing model.

The prefork MPM provides a non-threaded implementation using a variable
number of processes where each process handles only one connection at the
same time. It is not as fast as threaded models, but is considered to be
more stable. It is appropriate for sites that need to maintain
compatibility with non-thread-safe libraries, and is the best MPM for
isolating each request, so that a problem with a single request will not
affect any other.

Lenses are the building blocks of the file <-> tree transformation; they
combine parsing a file and building the tree (the get transformation),
with turning the tree back into an (updated) file (the put
transformation).

BackupPC is disk based and not tape based. This particularity allows features not found in any other backup solution:
* Clever pooling scheme minimizes disk storage and disk I/O.
Identical files across multiple backups of the same or different PC are
stored only once resulting in substantial savings in disk storage and disk
writes. Also known as "data deduplication".
* Optional compression provides additional reductions in storage.
CPU impact of compression is low since only new files (those not already
in the pool) need to be compressed.
* A powerful http/cgi user interface allows administrators to view log files,
configuration, current status and allows users to initiate and cancel
backups and browse and restore files from backups very quickly.
* No client-side software is needed. On WinXX the smb protocol is used.
On Linux or Unix clients, rsync or tar (over ssh/rsh/nfs) can be used
* Flexible restore options. Single files can be downloaded from any backup
directly from the CGI interface. Zip or Tar archives for selected files
or directories can also be downloaded from the CGI interface.
* BackupPC supports mobile environments where laptops are only intermittently
connected to the network and have dynamic IP addresses (DHCP).
* Flexible configuration parameters allow multiple backups to be performed
in parallel.

This package provides a command-line converter that can be used in scripts
to build console fonts from BDF sources automatically. The converter comes
with a collection of font encodings that cover many of the world's
languages. The output font can use a different character encoding from the
input. When the source font does not define a glyph for a particular
symbol in the encoding table, that glyph position in the console font is
not wasted but used for another symbol.
.
When deciding about the position in the font for a particular glyph, the
converter takes into account that in text video modes the video adapter
copies the eighth column of the glyph matrix of symbols positioned in the
pseudographic area to the ninth column. In order to create fonts for text
video modes, the width of the glyph matrix of the source BDF font should
be seven, eight, or nine pixels; otherwise the converter creates fonts
suitable for framebuffer only.

Description-md5: 1d3423894d16a186e692fc8818fe3072
Description-en_GB: easy to use distributed version control system
Bazaar is a distributed version control system designed to be easy to use
and intuitive, able to adapt to many workflows, reliable, and easily
extendable.
.
Publishing of branches can be done over plain HTTP, that is, no special
software is needed on the server to host Bazaar branches. Branches can be
pushed to the server via sftp (which most SSH installations come with),
FTP, or over a custom and faster protocol if bzr is installed in the
remote end.
.
Merging in Bazaar is easy, as the implementation is able to avoid many
spurious conflicts, deals well with repeated merges between branches, and
is able to handle modifications to renamed files correctly.
.
Bazaar is written in Python, and has a flexible plugin interface which can
be used to extend its functionality. Many plugins exist, providing useful
commands (bzrtools), graphical interfaces (bzr-gtk), or native interaction
with Subversion branches (bzr-svn).
.
Install python-paramiko if you are going to push branches to remote hosts
with sftp, and python-pycurl if you'd like for SSL certificates always to
be verified.

analysis tools such as a context-specific stack traces, source code
disassembly, kernel variable displays, memory display, dumps of
linked-lists, etc. In addition, any gdb command may be entered,
which in turn will be passed onto the gdb module for execution.

subsystems, which also serve as templates for kernel developers
to create new commands for analysis of a specific area of interest.
Adding a new command is a simple affair, and a quick recompile
adds it to the command menu.

building in recognition of major kernel code changes so as to adapt to
new kernel versions, while maintaining backwards compatibility.

Package: docbook
Description-md5: ead20f911a71259289f56248053bcdf9
Description-en_GB: Standard SGML representation system for technical documents
DocBook is an SGML document type definition (DTD) that is well-suited to
books, articles, or reference documentation about technical matters,
systems, or software (although it is by no means limited to these
applications). It has emerged as an open and standard DTD in the software
industry, and is used as the documentation system of choice for many free
software projects.
.
This package contains the SGML DTD for DocBook, which describes the formal
structure for documents following this format. If you wish to author
DocBook documents using XML rather than SGML, use the 'docbook-xml'
package. You will need other packages in order to edit (psgml), validate
(opensp) or format (docbook-xsl, docbook-dsssl) DocBook documents.
.
This package includes the 2.4.1, 3.0, 3.1, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5
versions of the DocBook SGML DTD.

Description-md5: 858031b46e88a202ef467a0ea94f76d7
Description-en_GB: Modular DocBook DSSSL stylesheets, for print and HTML
This package provides DSSSL stylesheets which let you convert DocBook SGML
or XML files to various formats.
.
This package contains two DocBook DSSSL stylesheets, one for "print"
output and one for HTML. The print stylesheet can be used in conjunction
with the RTF and the TeX back-ends that (Open)Jade provides to produce
output suitable for printing. The HTML stylesheet can be used to convert
DocBook documents into HTML.
.
The stylesheets are modular in design so that you can extend and customize
them.
.
Note that you can also perform DocBook XML styling using the "docbook-xsl"
package, which provides the XSL stylesheets. The XSL stylesheets are more
actively maintained and contain more new features than these DSSSL
stylesheets.

You will need other packages in order to edit (psgml), validate (opensp,
libxml2-utils) or format (docbook-xsl, docbook-dsssl) DocBook documents.
.
This package ships with the latest DocBook 4.5 XML DTD, as well as a
selected set of legacy DTDs for use with older documents, including 4.0,

the DocBook XML DTD and its derivatives ("Simplified" DocBook XML,
JRefEntry DTD, etc.).
.
The stylesheets provide XSLT transformations for (X)HTML, WordML, HTML
Help, JavaHelp, Man page (nroff), Website, Eclipse Platform Help file and
XSL Formatting Object (XSL-FO) output. The latter can be further processed
to a number of print formats using FOP or TeX-based tools.
.
The stylesheets are modular in the sense that you can extend and, to some
extent, customize them. The documentation is included in a separate
package.

Description-en_GB: Standard XML documentation system for software and systems
DocBook 5 is a general purpose XML schema. That is, it contains the
"DocBook" document structure. This is used by authors or editors writing
documents in the DocBook XML format. DocBook was designed for books,
articles, or reference documentation about technical matters or software
(though it is by no means limited to these applications). It has emerged
as an open standard in the software industry, and is the documentation
system of choice for many free software projects.
.
DocBook 5.0 is a complete rewrite of the well-known DocBook 4 XML
schema/DTD, introducing a quite large number of backwards-incompatible
changes. But the basic idea behind DocBook is still the same, and almost
all element names are unchanged.
.
This package contains the XML RelaxNG schema (with some additional
Schematron assertions), W3C XML Schema (XSD) as well as the Document Type
Definition (DTD) for DocBook, which all describe the formal structure for
documents following this format.
.
You will need other packages in order to edit, validate (libxml2-utils) or
format (docbook-xsl-ns) DocBook 5 documents.

Package: fonts-lmodern
Description-md5: 80d0553dfb3c18bdf3f44ed9358e1ac9
Description-en_GB: OpenType fonts based on Computer Modern
The Latin Modern fonts, also known as "lm fonts", are a set of scalable
fonts in PostScript Type 1 and OpenType formats. They are based on the
PostScript Type 1 version of the Computer Modern fonts and contain many
additional characters (mostly accented ones).
.
This package provides the OpenType variant of these fonts. For support for
TeX and Type 1 (PostScript) fonts, see the lmodern package.
.
The Latin Modern fonts were generated using MetaType1, a program based on
MetaPost for generating PostScript Type 1 fonts
(ftp://bop.eps.gda.pl/pub/metatype1/). Their size is reasonable and they
are usually considered to be of good quality (compared to cm-super, for
instance; however, cm-super contains font families that have no equivalent
in this package; additionally, there are character sets that are supported
by cm-super and not by the Latin Modern fonts).

Description-en_GB: Unicode font for Yi (a script used in southwestern China)
The Nuosu SIL font was originally named SIL Yi and developed in 2000 as a
single Unicode font for the standardized Yi script used by a large ethnic
group in southwestern China.
.
The traditional Yi scripts have been in use for centuries, and have a
tremendous number of local variants. The script was standardised in the
1970s by the Chinese government. In the process of standardisation, 820
symbols from the traditional scripts of the Liangshan region were chosen
to form a syllabary.
.
The syllable inventory of a speech variety from Xide County, Sichuan was
used as the phonological basis for standardisation. For the most part
there is one symbol per phonologically-distinct syllable and vice-versa.
The direction of writing and reading was standardised as left-to-right.
Punctuation symbols were borrowed from Chinese, and a diacritic was
incorporated into the system to mark one of the tones.

Description-en_GB: Low-Level Virtual Machine (LLVM), bindings for OCaml
The Low-Level Virtual Machine (LLVM) is a collection of libraries and
tools that make it easy to build compilers, optimisers, Just-In-Time code
generators, and many other compiler-related programs. LLVM uses a single,
language-independent virtual instruction set both as an offline code
representation (to communicate code between compiler phases and to run-
time systems) and as the compiler internal representation (to analyse and
transform programs). This persistent code representation allows a common
set of sophisticated compiler techniques to be applied at compile-time,
link-time, install-time, run-time, or "idle-time" (between program runs).
.
This package provides the OCaml bindings to develop applications using
llvm.

Description-en_GB: Low-Level Virtual Machine (LLVM)
The Low-Level Virtual Machine (LLVM) is a collection of libraries and
tools that make it easy to build compilers, optimisers, Just-In-Time code
generators, and many other compiler-related programs. LLVM uses a single,
language-independent virtual instruction set both as an offline code
representation (to communicate code between compiler phases and to run-
time systems) and as the compiler internal representation (to analyse and
transform programs). This persistent code representation allows a common
set of sophisticated compiler techniques to be applied at compile-time,
link-time, install-time, run-time, or "idle-time" (between program runs).
.
The strengths of the LLVM infrastructure are its extremely simple design
(which makes it easy to understand and use), source-language independence,
powerful mid-level optimiser, automated compiler debugging support,
extensibility, and its stability and reliability. LLVM is currently being
used to host a wide variety of academic research projects and commercial
projects. LLVM includes C and C++ front-ends, a front-end for a Forth-like
language (Stacker), a young scheme front-end, and Java support is in
development. LLVM can generate code for X86, SparcV9, PowerPC, or it can
emit C code.

Description-en_GB: SVG scrubber and optimiser
Scour is a Python module that aggressively cleans SVG files, removing a
lot of unnecessary information that certain tools or authors embed into
their documents. The goal of scour is to provide an identically rendered
image (i.e. a scoured document should have no discernable visible
differences from the original file) while minimizing the file size.
.
WARNING: Scour is intended to be run on files that have been edited in
Vector Graphics editors such as Inkscape or Adobe Illustrator. Scour
attempts to optimise the file, and as result, it will change the file's
structure and (possibly) its semantics. If you have hand-edited your SVG
files, you will probably not be happy with the output of Scour.
.
Never use scour to overwrite your original file!
.
This package also provides a dh_scour debhelper extension which optimises
all shipped SVGs during package build. If python-rsvg and python-cairo are
available, it will also do a before/after comparison and discard the
optimised image if they differ by more than 0.05%.

structures automatically; map objects to not just tables but to any
arbitrary join or select statement; combine multiple tables together to
load whole sets of otherwise unrelated objects from a single result set;
commit entire graphs of object changes in one step.
* built to conform to what DBAs demand, including the ability to swap out
generated SQL with hand-optimised statements, full usage of bind parameters
for all literal values, fully transactionalised and consistent updates
using Unit of Work.
* modular. Different parts of SQLAlchemy can be used independently of the
rest, including the connection pool, SQL construction, and ORM. SQLAlchemy

Package: quilt
Description-md5: 8eeb0522bc56c3acd93b9e763f3dcd28
Description-en_GB: Tool to work with series of patches
Quilt manages a series of patches by keeping track of the changes each of
them makes. They are logically organised as a stack, and you can apply,
un-apply, refresh them easily by traveling into the stack (push/pop).
.
Quilt is good for managing additional patches applied to a package
received as a tarball or maintained in another version control system. The
stacked organization is proven to be efficient for the management of very
large patch sets (more than hundred patches). As matter of fact, it was
designed by and for Linux kernel hackers (Andrew Morton, from the -mm
branch, is the original author), and its main use by the current upstream
maintainer is to manage the (hundreds of) patches against the kernel made
for the SUSE distribution.

Description-md5: 868b817bdd864e79bb40541703c5d18a
Description-en_GB: Update Configuration File: preserve user changes to config files.
Debian policy mandates that user changes to configuration files must be
preserved during package upgrades. The easy way to achieve this behavior
is to make the configuration file a 'conffile', in which case dpkg handles
the file specially during upgrades, prompting the user as needed.
.
This is appropriate only if it is possible to distribute a default version
that will work for most installations, although some system administrators
may choose to modify it. This implies that the default version will be
part of the package distribution, and must not be modified by the
maintainer scripts during installation (or at any other time).
.
This script attempts to provide conffile-like handling for files that may
not be labelled conffiles, and are not shipped in a Debian package, but
handled by the postinst instead. This script allows one to maintain files
in /etc, preserving user changes and in general offering the same
facilities while upgrading that dpkg normally provides for 'conffiles'.
.
Additionally, this script provides facilities for transitioning a file
that had not been provided with conffile-like protection to come under
this schema, and attempts to minimize questions asked at installation
time. Indeed, the transitioning facility is better than the one offered by
dpkg while transitioning a file from a non-conffile to conffile status.

Package: xfonts-scalable
Description-md5: 130f2543a116db5cfb1067f413a7dc80
Description-en_GB: scalable fonts for X
xfonts-scalable provides fonts that can be drawn at any size by the X
server or font server without loss of quality. In most cases it is
desirable to have the X font server (xfs) and/or an X server installed to
make the fonts available to X clients.
.
This package is missing three fonts from the X.Org source archives because
the license terms on the fonts do not meet the Debian Free Software
Guidelines; they are the Type1 fonts Adobe Utopia, IBM Courier, and
Bigelow & Holmes (B&H) Luxi.
.
This package requires the xutils package to prepare the font directories
for use by an X server or X font server.
Package: xfslibs-dev
Description-md5: 54fdf1338d81d394bfd209d85009d7c8
Description-en_GB: XFS filesystem-specific static libraries and headers
xfslibs-dev contains the libraries and header files needed to develop XFS
filesystem-specific programs.
.
XFS is a high performance journaling filesystem which originated on the
SGI IRIX platform. It is completely multi-threaded, can support large
files and large filesystems, extended attributes, variable block sizes, is
extent based, and makes extensive use of Btrees (directories, extents,
free space) to aid both performance and scalability.
.
Refer to the documentation at http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/ for
complete details.

Package: xterm
Description-md5: c1e47d60a01948be9aae7a2a4f63a0fe
Description-en_GB: X terminal emulator
xterm is a terminal emulator for the X Window System. It provides DEC
VT102 and Tektronix 4014 compatible terminals for programs that cannot use
the window system directly. This version implements ISO/ANSI colours and
most of the control sequences used by DEC VT220 terminals.
.
This package provides four commands: xterm, which is the traditional
terminal emulator; uxterm, which is a wrapper around xterm that is
intelligent about locale settings (especially those which use the UTF-8
character encoding), but which requires the luit program from the
x11-utils package; koi8rxterm, a wrapper similar to uxterm for locales
that use the KOI8-R character set; and lxterm, a simple wrapper that
chooses which of the previous commands to execute based on the user's
locale settings.
.
A complete list of control sequences supported by the X terminal emulator
is provided in /usr/share/doc/xterm.
.
The xterm program uses bitmap images provided by the xbitmaps package.
.
Those interested in using koi8rxterm will likely want to install the
xfonts-cyrillic package as well.
