  Description     : Support fscache ON ALREADY MOUNTED FILESYSTEM

FSCache is a generic caching manager in the Linux kernel which can be used
by network and other filesystems to cache data locally.

an already mounted filesystem of a local type (such as Ext3).  This package
installs the userspace support required by the cachefiles backend.
