Avahi is an implementation of the DNS Service Discovery and Multicast
DNS specifications for Zeroconf Computing. It uses D-BUS for
communication between user applications and a system daemon. The daemon
is used to coordinate application efforts in caching replies, necessary
to minimize the traffic imposed on networks.

The Avahi mDNS responder is now complete with features, implementing
all MUSTs and the majority of the SHOULDs of the mDNS and DNS-SD RFCs.
It passes all tests in the Apple Bonjour conformance test suite. In
addition, it supports some nifty things, like correct mDNS reflection
across LAN segments.

Cairo is a vector graphics library with cross-device output support.
Currently supported output targets include the X Window System,
in-memory image buffers, and PostScript. Cairo is designed to produce
identical output on all output media while taking advantage of display
hardware acceleration when available.

This package provides a C++ interface for Cairo.

The CELT codec is an experimental audio codec for use in low-delay
speech and audio communication.

Check is a unit test framework for C. It features a simple interfacefor
defining unit tests, limitating the developer the less possible. Tests
are run in a separate address space, so Check cancatch both, assertion
failures and code errors that cause segmentationfaults or other
signals. The output of unit tests can be used within source code
editors and IDEs.

colord is a system activated daemon that maps devices to color profiles.
It is used by gnome-color-manager for system integration and use when
there are no users logged in.

A library providing an efficient extensible abstraction for dealing
with different spell checking libraries.

eSpeak is a compact open source software speech synthesizer for English
and other languages.

eSpeak uses a "formant synthesis" method. This allows many languages to
be provided in a small size. The speech is clear, and can be used at
high speeds, but is not as natural or smooth as larger synthesizers
which are based on human speech recordings.

FFADO aims to provide a generic, open-source solution
to support FireWire(IEEE1394, iLink) based (semi-)
professional audio interfaces.
It's the successor of the FreeBoB project. FFADO is a
volunteer-based community effort, trying to provide Linux
with at least the same level of functionality that is
present on the other operating systems.
The range of FireWire Audio Devices that we would like
to support is broad: from pure audio interfaces over
mixed audio-control devices to DSP algorithm devices.

This package contains common files between firebird-classic and
firebird-superserver. You will need this if you want to use either one.

This library implements the algorithm as described in the "Unicode
Standard Annex #9, the Bidirectional Algorithm,
http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr9/". FriBidi is exhaustively
tested against the Bidi Reference Code and, to the best of the
developers' knowledge, does notcontain any conformance bugs.

The API was inspired by the document "Bi-Di languages support - BiDi
API proposal" by Franck Portaneri, which he wrote as a proposal for
adding BiDi support to Mozilla.

This C library provides an API and ABI compatible file alteration
monitor mechanism compatible with FAM but not dependent on a system wide
daemon.

GConf is a configuration database system for storing application
preferences. It supports default or mandatory settings set by the
administrator, and changes to the database are instantly applied to all
running applications. It is written for the GNOME desktop but doesn't
require it.

gdk-pixbuf is an image loading library that can be extended by loadable
modules for new image formats. It is used by toolkits such as GTK+ or
Clutter.

This package contains network-related GIO modules for glib.

Currently, there is only a proxy module based on libproxy.

GLib is a general-purpose utility library, which provides many useful
data types, macros, type conversions, string utilities, file utilities,
a main loop abstraction, and so on.

Glibmm is the official C++ interface for the popular cross-platform
library Glib. It provides non-UI API that is not available in standard
C++ and makes it possible for gtkmm to wrap GObject-based APIs.

Gnome-common includes files used by to build GNOME and GNOME applications.

The gnome-doc-utils package is a collection of documentation utilities
for the GNOME project. Notably, it contains utilities for building
documentation and all auxiliary files in your source tree. It also
contains the DocBook XSLT stylesheets that were once distributed with
Yelp.

This package provides scripts for collecting strings changed in RPM
patches and merging them to one translation compendium.

GNOME VFS is the GNOME virtual file system. It is the foundation of the
Nautilus file manager. It provides a modular architecture and ships
with several modules that implement support for file systems, HTTP,
FTP, and others. It provides a URI-based API, a back-end supporting
asynchronous file operations, a MIME type manipulation library, and
other features.

The goal of the project is to describe the APIs and collect them in
a uniform, machine readable format.

A collection of GSettings schemas for settings shared by various
components of a desktop.

Gtkdoc is a set of Perl scripts that generate API reference
documentation in DocBook format. It can extract documentation from
source code comments in a manner similar to Java-doc. It is used to
generate the documentation for GLib, Gtk+, and GNOME.
