[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.3.1, Package name: acl-2.3.1, Maintainer: als

This package provides POSIX ACL interfaces on Linux; these interfaces
are typically missing on Linux systems. Specifically, it contains the
getfacl and setfacl utilities and a library "libacl", as well
as headers and man pages. When this package is installed on Linux,
one can build programs that expect POSIX ACLs.

Make it clear that this provides interfaces that are missing on Linux,
rather than seeming like a general acl facility.
