This package makes it possible on most UNIX platforms to contact your own DNS implementation in your test environment. It requires socket_wrapper to be able to contact the server. Alternatively, the wrapper is able to fake DNS queries and return valid responses to your application. It provides the following features:

• Redirects name queries to the nameservers specified in your resolv.conf.

• Can fake DNS queries using a simple formatted DNS hosts file.

Talloc is a hierarchical, reference counted memory pool system with destructors. It is the core memory allocator used in Samba.

This package provides tools to test your PAM application or module. For testing PAM applications, a simple PAM module called pam_matrix is provided. For testing PAM modules, see the pamtest library. One can combine it with the CMocka unit testing framework or use the provided Python bindings to write tests for modules in Python.

The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) provides a standard way to establish a network connection over a serial link. At present, this package supports IP and IPV6 and the protocols layered above them, such as TCP and UDP.

cifs-utils is a set of user-space utilities for mounting and managing CIFS shares using the Linux kernel CIFS client.

Some projects, such as a file server, need privilege separation to be able to switch to the user who owns the files and do file operations on their behalf. This package convincingly lies to the application, letting it believe it is operating as root and even switching between UIDs and GIDs as needed. You can start any application making it believe it is running as root. This package provides the following features :

• Allows uid switching as a normal user.

• Start any application making it believe it is running as root.

• Support for user/group changing in the local thread using the syscalls (like glibc).

• Intercepts seteuid and related calls and simulates them in a way transparent to the application.

This daemon allows (Samba) hosts to be found by Web Service Discovery Clients. It also implements the client side of the discovery protocol which searches for devices implementing WSD.

This package provides a library to disable resource limits and other privilege dropping, i.e. disabling chroot, prctl, pledge and setrlmit system calls. This package aims to help running processes which are dropping privileges or are restricting resources in test environments. A disabled call always succeeds (i.e. returns 0) and does nothing.

Ldb is a LDAP-like embedded database built on top of TDB. What ldb does is provide a fast database with an LDAP-like API designed to be used within an application. In some ways it can be seen as a intermediate solution between key-value pair databases and a real LDAP database.

Talloc is a hierarchical, reference counted memory pool system with destructors. It is the core memory allocator used in Samba.

Since 1992, Samba has provided secure, stable and fast file and print services for all clients using the SMB/CIFS protocol, such as all versions of DOS and Windows, OS/2, GNU/Linux and many others.

Samba is an important component to seamlessly integrate Linux/Unix Servers and Desktops into Active Directory environments using the winbind daemon.

This package aims to help client-server software development teams achieve full functional test coverage. It makes it possible to run several instances of the full software stack on the same machine to functionally test complex network configurations locally. It provides the following features:

• Redirects all network communication to happen over Unix sockets.

• Support for IPv4 and IPv6 socket and addressing emulation.

• Ability to capture network traffic in pcap format.

The iniParser C library reads and writes Windows-style .ini configuration files. These are simple text files with a basic structure composed of sections, properties, and values. While not expressive, they are easy to read, write, and modify.

The library is small, thread safe, and written in portable ANSI C with no external dependencies.

Scanbd stands for scanner button daemon. It regularly polls scanners for pressed buttons, function knob changes, or other events such as (un)plugging the scanner or inserting and removing paper. Then it performs the desired action(s) such as saving, copying, or e-mailing the image.

Actions can be fully customized through scripts, based on any combination of switch or knob settings. Events are also signaled over D-Bus and scans can even be triggered over D-Bus from foreign applications.

Scanbd talks to scanners through the SANE back-end library. This means that it supports almost all existing scanners, provided the driver also exposes the buttons.

This SANE backend lets you scan documents and images from scanners and multi-function printers that speak eSCL (marketed as ``AirScan'') or WSD (or ``WS-Scan'').

Both are vendor-neutral protocols that allow ``driverless'' scanning over IPv4 and IPv6 networks without the vendor-specific drivers that make up most of the sane-backends collection. This is similar to how most contemporary printers speak the universal IPP.

Only scanners that support eSCL will also work over USB. This requires a suitable IPP-over-USB daemon like ipp-usb to be installed and configured.

Any eSCL or WSD-capable scanner should just work. sane-airscan automatically discovers and configures devices, including which protocol to use. It was successfully tested with many devices from Brother, Canon, Dell, Kyocera, Lexmark, Epson, HP, OKI, Panasonic, Pantum, Ricoh, Samsung, and Xerox, with both WSD and eSCL.

SANE stands for "Scanner Access Now Easy" and is an API proving access to any raster image scanner hardware (flatbed scanner, hand-held scanner, video- and still-cameras, frame-grabbers, etc.). The package contains the library, but no drivers.

Utsushi is a set of applications for image scanning with support for a number of EPSON scanners, including a compatibility driver to interface with software built around the SANE standard.

To enable auto-rotation functionality, install the tesseract-ocr and tesseract-ocr-tessdata-fast packages.

XSane is a graphical interface for controlling a scanner and acquiring images from it. You can photocopy multi-page documents and save, fax, print, or e-mail your scanned images. It is highly configurable and exposes all device settings, letting you fine-tune the final result. It can also be used as a GIMP plugin to acquire images directly from a scanner.

XSane talks to scanners through the SANE back-end library, which supports almost all existing scanners.

HOP is a multi-tier programming language for the Web 2.0 and the so-called diffuse Web. It is designed for programming interactive web applications in many fields such as multimedia (web galleries, music players, ...), ubiquitous and house automation (SmartPhones, personal appliance), mashups, office (web agendas, mail clients, ...), etc.

TinyScheme is a light-weight Scheme interpreter that implements as large a subset of R5RS as was possible without getting very large and complicated.

It's meant to be used as an embedded scripting interpreter for other programs. As such, it does not offer an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) or extensive toolkits, although it does sport a small (and optional) top-level loop.

As an embedded interpreter, it allows multiple interpreter states to coexist in the same program, without any interference between them. Foreign functions in C can be added and values can be defined in the Scheme environment. Being quite a small program, it is easy to comprehend, get to grips with, and use.

This is a R7RS Scheme implementation designed to run within a Common Lisp environment.

String pattern-matching library for scheme48 based on the SRE regular-expression notation.

Gauche is a R7RS Scheme scripting engine aiming at being a handy tool that helps programmers and system administrators to write small to large scripts quickly. Quick startup, built-in system interface, native multilingual support are some of the goals. Gauche comes with a package manager/installer gauche-package which can download, compile, install and list gauche extension packages.
