  Description     : Device firmware update (DFU) USB programmer

 dfu-util is a program that implements the Host (PC) side of the USB DFU
 (Universal Serial Bus Device Firmware Upgrade) protocol.
 .
 In the OpenMoko project (for example), this program is used to communicate
 with the specially enhanced u-boot boot loader, which implements the DFU
 device side.

Note: This program is similar to dfu-programmer, but not the same. For
the differences (and reasons to package this in addition to
dfu-programmer) see:
