skalibs 2.15.0.0-1

Package Information

Descriptionlibrary used for building software at skarnet.org

skalibs is a package centralizing the free software / open source C development files used for building all software at skarnet.org: it contains essentially general-purpose libraries. You will need to install skalibs if you plan to build skarnet.org software. The point is that you won't have to download and compile big libraries, and care about portability issues, every time you need to build a package: do it only once.

skalibs can also be used as a sound basic start for C development. There are a lot of general-purpose libraries out there; but if your main goal is to produce small and secure C code with a focus on system programming, skalibs might be for you.

This package contains shared libraries.
