  Description     : APRS parser

libfap is a C port of the Ham::APRS::FAP Finnish APRS Parser (Fabulous APRS
Parser) Perl module. As the original Perl code, libfap parses normal, mic-e and
compressed location packets, NMEA location packets, objects, items, messages,
telemetry and most weather packets. For more description, see the Perl module.

Note that libfap5 is currently packaged in Debian and this is a new upstream
version with a new soname.
