Bug#461985: ITP: libbsd -- BSD compatibility library



Guillem Jover a écrit :
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Guillem Jover <guillem@debian.org>

* Package name    : libbsd
  Version         : 0.0
  Upstream Author : The FreeBSD project
* URL             : http://www.freebsd.org/
* License         : BSD
  Programming Lang: C
  Description     : BSD compatibility library


This library provides some functions available on FreeBSD's libc but
not on glibc. This devel package also includes some queue macro
definitions not present on includes from glibc.

Maybe it would be a good idea to add a list of the functions so that using "apt-cache search the_function_I_am_looking_for" will find the libbsd package.

It would also give a clue of what these missing functions are. For example is strlcpy and strlcat provided by this library?

Bye
