This package provides a PAM interface using ctypes.

haveged generates an unpredictable stream of random numbers for use by Linux's /dev/random and /dev/urandom devices. The kernel's standard mechanisms for filling the entropy pool may not be sufficient for systems with high needs or limited user interaction, such as headless servers.

haveged runs as a privileged daemon, harvesting randomness from the indirect effects of hardware events on hidden processor state using the HAVEGE algorithm. It tunes itself to its environment and provides the same built-in test suite for the output stream as used on certified hardware security devices.

The quality of the randomness produced by this algorithm has not been proven. It is recommended to run it together with another entropy source like rngd, and not as a replacement for it.

The SBC is a digital audio encoder and decoder used to transfer data to Bluetooth audio output devices like headphones or loudspeakers.

kernel-hardening-checker is a tool for checking the security hardening options of the Linux kernel. Provided preferences are based on suggestions from various sources, including:

• KSPP recommended settings

• CLIP OS kernel configuration

• Last public grsecurity patch (options which they disable)

• SECURITY_LOCKDOWN_LSM patchset

• Direct feedback from the Linux kernel maintainers

This tool supports checking Kconfig options and kernel cmdline parameters.

BlueZ provides support for the core Bluetooth layers and protocols. It is flexible, efficient and uses a modular implementation.

Iproute2 is a collection of utilities for controlling TCP/IP networking and traffic with the Linux kernel. The most important of these are ip, which configures IPv4 and IPv6, and tc for traffic control.

Most network configuration manuals still refer to ifconfig and route as the primary network configuration tools, but ifconfig is known to behave inadequately in modern network environments, and both should be deprecated.

UnionFS-FUSE is a flexible union file system implementation in user space, using the FUSE library. Mounting a union file system allows you to "aggregate" the contents of several directories into a single mount point. UnionFS-FUSE additionally supports copy-on-write.

Touchégg is an application that runs in the background and transform the gestures you make on your touchpad or touchscreen into visible actions in your desktop.

libnetfilter_queue is a userspace library providing an API to packets that have been queued by the kernel packet filter. It is is part of a system that deprecates the old ip_queue/libipq mechanism.

Keyd is a keyboard remapping utility with intuitive ini configuration file format. Keyd has several features, many of which are traditionally only found in custom keyboard firmware like QMK.

snapscreenshot saves a screenshot of one or more Linux text consoles as a Targa (.tga) image. It can be used by anyone with read access to the relevant /dev/vcs* file(s).

This package provides the following binaries to drive the Linux Device Mapper multipathing driver:

1. multipath - Device mapper target autoconfig.

2. multipathd - Multipath daemon.

3. mpathpersist - Manages SCSI persistent reservations on dm multipath devices.

4. kpartx - Create device maps from partition tables.

PipeWire is a project that aims to greatly improve handling of audio and video under Linux. It aims to support the usecases currently handled by both PulseAudio and Jack and at the same time provide same level of powerful handling of Video input and output. It also introduces a security model that makes interacting with audio and video devices from containerized applications easy, with supporting Flatpak applications being the primary goal. Alongside Wayland and Flatpak we expect PipeWire to provide a core building block for the future of Linux application development.

This package contains the wireless regulatory database for the CRDA. The database contains information on country-specific regulations for the wireless spectrum.

This package provides means to to read BitLocker encrypted partitions. Write functionality is also provided but check the README.

GNU Linux-Libre is a free (as in freedom) variant of the Linux kernel. It has been modified to remove all non-free binary blobs.

This package contains keytable files and keyboard utilities compatible for systems using the Linux kernel. This includes commands such as loadkeys, setfont, kbdinfo, and chvt.

LVM2 is the logical volume management tool set for Linux-based systems. This package includes the user-space libraries and tools, including the device mapper. Kernel components are part of Linux-libre.

compsize takes a list of files (given as arguments) on a Btrfs file system and measures used compression types and effective compression ratio, producing a report.

A directory has no extents but has a (recursive) list of files. A non-regular file is silently ignored.

As it makes no sense to talk about compression ratio of a partial extent, every referenced extent is counted whole, exactly once -- no matter if you use only a few bytes of a 1GB extent or reflink it a thousand times. Thus, the uncompressed size will not match the number given by tar or du. On the other hand, the space used should be accurate (although obviously it can be shared with files outside our set).

F2FS, the Flash-Friendly File System, is a modern file system designed to be fast and durable on flash devices such as solid-state disks and SD cards. This package provides the userland utilities.

LIRC allows computers to send and receive IR signals of many commonly used remote controls. The most important part of LIRC is the lircd daemon that decodes IR signals received by the device drivers. The second daemon program lircmd translates IR signals to mouse movements. The user space applications allow you to control your computer with a remote control: you can send X events to applications, start programs and much more on just one button press.

cl-hamcrest is an implementation of the Hamcrest idea in Common Lisp. It simplifies unit tests and makes them more readable. Hamcrest uses the idea of pattern-matching, to construct matchers from different pieces and to apply them to the data.

This project was originally called cl-test-more. prove is yet another unit testing framework for Common Lisp. The advantages of prove are:

• Various simple functions for testing and informative error messages

• ASDF integration

• Extensible test reporters

• Colorizes the report if it's available (note for SLIME)

• Reports test durations

Eos was a unit testing library for Common Lisp. It began as a fork of FiveAM; however, FiveAM development has continued, while that of Eos has not. Thus, Eos is now deprecated in favor of FiveAM.
