This package provides all the locales supported by the GNU C Library, more than 400 in total. To use them set the LOCPATH environment variable to the share/locale sub-directory of this package.

The Time Zone Database (often called tz or zoneinfo) contains code and data that represent the history of local time for many representative locations around the globe. It is updated periodically to reflect changes made by political bodies to time zone boundaries, UTC offsets, and daylight-saving rules.

GNU Binutils is a collection of tools for working with binary files. Perhaps the most notable are "ld", a linker, and "as", an assembler. Other tools include programs to display binary profiling information, list the strings in a binary file, and utilities for working with archives. The "bfd" library for working with executable and object formats is also included.

Any Unix-like operating system needs a C library: the library which defines the "system calls" and other basic facilities such as open, malloc, printf, exit...

The GNU C library is used as the C library in the GNU system and most systems with the Linux kernel.

Bash is the shell, or command-line interpreter, of the GNU system. It is compatible with the Bourne Shell, but it also integrates useful features from the Korn Shell and the C Shell and new improvements of its own. It allows command-line editing, unlimited command history, shell functions and aliases, and job control while still allowing most sh scripts to be run without modification.

This package provides extensions that allow Bash to provide adapted completion for many common commands.

Bash TAP is a TAP-compliant Test::More-style testing library for Bash shell scripts and functions. Along with the Test::More-style testing helpers it provides helper functions for mocking commands and in-process output capturing.

Bash Line Editor (ble.sh) is a command line editor written in pure Bash which replaces the default GNU Readline. It adds syntax highlighting, auto suggestions, vim modes, and more to Bash interactive sessions.

Bash is the shell, or command-line interpreter, of the GNU system. This variant logs the history to syslog.

Bash-ctypes is a Bash plugin that provides a foreign function interface (FFI) directly in your shell. In other words, it allows you to call routines in shared libraries from within Bash.

bash_unit allows you to write unit tests, run them and, in case of failure, display the stack trace with source file and line number indications to locate the problem.

Bats is a TAP-compliant testing framework for Bash. It provides a simple way to verify that the UNIX programs you write behave as expected. Bats is most useful when testing software written in Bash, but you can use it to test any UNIX program.

This package provides a SAC interface by the W3C. SAC is an interface for CSS parsers.

This package provides a SVG interface.

This package provides XMLGraphics constants (originally from batik).

This package provides a SVG 1.0 interface.

Batik is a Java-based toolkit for applications or applets that want to use images in the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format for various purposes, such as display, generation or manipulation.

The Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative garbage collector can be used as a garbage collecting replacement for C malloc or C++ new. It allows you to allocate memory basically as you normally would, without explicitly deallocating memory that is no longer useful. The collector automatically recycles memory when it determines that it can no longer be otherwise accessed.

The collector is also used by a number of programming language implementations that either use C as intermediate code, want to facilitate easier interoperation with C libraries, or just prefer the simple collector interface.

Alternatively, the garbage collector may be used as a leak detector for C or C++ programs, though that is not its primary goal.

This C library provides semi-portable access to hardware-provided atomic memory update operations on a number of architectures. These might allow you to write code that does more interesting things in signal handlers, write lock-free code, experiment with thread programming paradigms, etc.
