The GNU Shepherd is a daemon-managing daemon, meaning that it supervises the execution of system services, replacing similar functionality found in typical init systems. It provides dependency-handling through a convenient interface and is based on GNU Guile.

wpa_supplicant is a WPA Supplicant with support for WPA and WPA2 (IEEE 802.11i / RSN). Supplicant is the IEEE 802.1X/WPA component that is used in the client stations. It implements key negotiation with a WPA Authenticator and it controls the roaming and IEEE 802.11 authentication/association of the WLAN driver.

This package provides the wpa_supplicant daemon and the wpa_cli command.

This package provides the /etc/services, /etc/protocols, and /etc/rpc files, which contain information about the IANA-assigned port, protocol, and ONC RPC numbers.

This package provides udev bindings for Python.

daemontools is a collection of tools for managing UNIX services.

Fasd (pronounced similar to "fast") is a command-line productivity booster. Fasd offers quick access to files and directories for POSIX shells. It is inspired by tools like autojump, z, and v. Fasd keeps track of files and directories you have accessed so that you can quickly reference them in the command line.

Ktsuss stands for ``Keep the su simple, stupid''. It is a graphical version of su written in C and GTK+ 2, with simplicity in mind.

Ansible aims to be a radically simple IT automation system. It handles configuration management, application deployment, cloud provisioning, ad-hoc task execution, network automation, and multi-node orchestration. Ansible facilitates complex changes like zero-downtime rolling updates with load balancers. This package provides a curated set of community-maintained Ansible collections, which contain playbooks, roles, modules and plugins that extend Ansible.

CoreCtrl allows you to control with ease your computer hardware using application profiles.

hungrycat prints the contents of a file to standard output, while simultaneously freeing the disk space it occupied. It is useful if you need to process a large file, don't have enough space to store both the input and output files, and don't need the input file afterwards. While similar in principle to running cat immediately followed by rm, hungrycat actually frees blocks as soon as they are printed instead of after the entire file has been read, which is often too late.

jtbl accepts piped JSON data from stdin and outputs a text table representation to stdout.

Spindle is a tool for improving the performance of dynamic library and Python loading in HPC environments.

Tree is a recursive directory listing command that produces a depth indented listing of files, which is colorized ala dircolors if the LS_COLORS environment variable is set and output is to tty.

Munge is an authentication service for creating and validating credentials. It allows a process to authenticate the UID and GID of another local or remote process within a group of hosts having common users and groups. These hosts form a security realm that is defined by a shared cryptographic key. Clients within this security realm can create and validate credentials without the use of root privileges, reserved ports, or platform-specific methods.

rex runs a supplied command or shell script on several hosts in succession or in parallel. It can also be used to copy a file or files to several hosts.

Nmap ("Network Mapper") is a network discovery and security auditing tool. It is also useful for tasks such as network inventory, managing service upgrade schedules, and monitoring host or service uptime. It also provides an advanced netcat implementation (ncat), a utility for comparing scan results (ndiff), and a packet generation and response analysis tool (nping).

This project aims to provide an extension to the Shepherd, retraining it as a swineherd, a manager of crude system containers. It does this by providing a Shepherd service swineherd that talks to the Shepherd process to create Guix System containers as Shepherd services. It also comes with an optional HTTP API server.

This package contains tools for Allwinner devices:

1. sunxi-fexc, bin2fex, fex2bin: Compile a textual description of a board (.fex) to a binary representation (.bin).

2. sunxi-fel: Puts an Allwinner device into FEL mode which makes it register as a special USB device (rather than USB host). You can then connect it to another computer and flash it from there.

3. sunxi-nand-part: Partitions NAND flash.

4. sunxi-bootinfo: Reads out boot0 and boot1 (Allwinner bootloader) parameters.

5. sunxi-pio: Sets GPIO parameters and oscillates a GPIO in order to be able to find it.

6. sunxi-meminfo: Prints memory bus settings.

7. sunxi-nand-image-builder: Prepares raw NAND images.

Autojump provides a faster way to navigate your file system, with a "cd command that learns". It works by maintaining a database of the directories you use the most from the command line and allows you to "jump" to frequently used directories by typing only a small pattern.

Sudo (su "do") allows a system administrator to delegate authority to give certain users (or groups of users) the ability to run some (or all) commands as root or another user while providing an audit trail of the commands and their arguments.

doctl provides a unified command line interface to the DigitalOcean API.

C-ares is a C library that performs DNS requests and name resolution asynchronously. It is intended for applications which need to perform DNS queries without blocking, or need to perform multiple DNS queries in parallel. The primary examples of such applications are servers which communicate with multiple clients and programs with graphical user interfaces.
