+Description: chiark system administration utilities
+ This package contains a number of small administration scripts used
+ by chiark.greenend.org.uk and other systems belonging to the Sinister
+ Greenend Organisation. Currently featuring only:
+ .
+ with-lock-ex: a simple tool for acquiring a lockfile before running
+ another program or script.
+ .
+ summer: a tool for reporting complete details about a filesystem tree
+ in a parseable format, including checksums.
+ .
+ xacpi-simple: a very simple X client for displaying ACPI battery
+ charge status.
+ .
+ watershed: a utility for saving on superfluous executions of an
+ idempotent command. (This is the same utility as shipped separately
+ in Ubuntu's udev, but with slightly different defaults and a
+ different install location.)
+ .
+ summer and watershed require the installation of the Recommended
+ crypto libraries; xacpi-simple needs the Suggested X libraries.

+Description: really - a tool for gaining privilege (simple, realistic sudo)
+ really is a program that allows certain users to become whatever user
+ they like on request. It is a bit like sudo in that respect.
+ However, really is simpler than sudo, and doesn't give the system
+ administrator any false security promises. So really is less of a
+ general security risk to the system.
+ .
+ Unlike sudo it does not pretend that the called account can be any
+ more secure than the calling account. so there is never a need for a
+ password. If you wanted to restrict which commands and functions the
+ called user can perform, use userv, not really or sudo.
+ .
+ Also unlike sudo, really only works if the calling user is supposed
+ to be equivalent to root. But, really can also be used by
+ root-equivalent users to become any user, not just root; in this way
+ it can be a replacement for certain uses of su.
