Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : libsem Version : 0.0.1 Upstream Author : Gael Le Mignot <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2002-11/msg00316.html http://people.debian.org/~rmh/libsem/ * License : LGPL Description : Portable, pthread-based semaphore library
This is a portable, pthread-based implementation of POSIX semaphores. It was initialy written as a patch for the Hurd. However, since it only relies on portable interfaces like pthread, it can be used on any sane system. I intend to enable this library for all dpkg architectures in which the system doesn't currently provide semaphores (to avoid symbol conflicts). This means the only official architecture this package will be compiled for is hurd-i386. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: kfreebsd-i386 (i386) Kernel: GNU/kFreeBSD 5.2.1-5 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (ignored: LC_ALL set to C)
