  Description     : openSUSE/SLES package management system library

 libzypp is the package management library that powers applications like
 YaST, zypper and the openSUSE/SLE implementation of PackageKit.
 .
 libzypp provides all the functionality for a package manager:
 .
   - an API for package repository management, supporting most common
     repository metadata formats and signed repositories
   - an API for solving packages, products, patterns and patches (installation,
     removal, update and distribution upgrade operations) dependencies, with
     additional features like locking
   - an API for commiting the transaction to the system over a rpm target;
     supporting deltarpm calculation, media changing and installation order
     calculation
   - an API for browsing available and installed software, with some facilities
     for programs with an user interface
   - a suite of maintained solving testcases representing common and uncommon
     operations on Linux software management

 ----------

 This library is packaged in order to get obs-build into Debian. The obs-build
 tool can be used to build openSUSE/SLES packages in clean chroots.
