Hi,

keytab-lilo is useful to people maintaining a PXE server, because
syslinux uses the lilo keytable format for its keymaps.

Installing LILO just to use the keytab-lilo script is far from
convenient, so here is a patch making keytab-lilo available in its own
package.

Regards,

+ .
+ This package contains the keytab-lilo tool, which is a Perl script that can
+ compile keytable files to use with LILO and other tools (for example SYSLINUX,
+ which uses the same keytable format).
