  Description     : library for downloading files from HTTP/FTP
 Libdownload is a library for downloading files from HTTP/FTP servers.
 It is a fork of libfetch, used by FreeBSD and others, and supports a
 very simple interface for downloading files into memory buffers and
 file descriptors. Changes from libfetch include modification to improve
 portability, and proper use of select(2) timeouts.

This is being packaged because it is a dependency of pacman-package-manager
(see #511994).
