Standards-Version: 3.1.1
Package: python-mlib
-Architecture: all
-Depends: ${python:Depends}
-Description: A library of miscellaneous stuff
- The mLib library provides various handy utilities, including
- * yet another options parser, like GNU getopt but more so;
- * a simple but efficient universal hashing family;
- * a suite for writing event-driven select-based servers;
- * a simple exception-handling system, based on longjmp;
- * dynamically resizing strings and arrays;
- * a resizing hashtable;
- * base64 and hex encoding and decoding; and
- * a simple background DNS resolver.
- .
- This is a dummy package to pull in the right bindings for the default Debian
- version of Python.
- .
- Not all of the features of mLib are available (or, indeed, very useful) in
- Python. For example, Python has its own exception system, and different
- ideas about how strings work.
