This package contains the gpg key that is used to sign official SuSE
rpm packages. It will be installed as a keyring in
/usr/lib/rpm/gnupg/pubring.gpg. Administrators who wish to add their
own keys to verify against should use the following commandline command
to add the key to the keyring as used by RPM:

gpg --no-options --no-default-keyring \ --keyring
/usr/lib/rpm/gnupg/pubring.gpg --import

swfdec is a free flash player. It is usually embedded into a browser
via the swfdec-mozilla package for instance.

Swfdec is a decoder/renderer for Macromedia Flash animations. The
decoding and rendering engine is provided in a library that can be used
by other applications.

This package contains a Mozilla plugin that uses the Swfdec library for
playing SWF files in a browser capable of loading Netscape-Plugins. It
is in an experimental state at the moment, so don't be surprised if it
crashes your browser.

TOMOYO userland utilities.

Trusted Computing is a set of specifications published by the Trusted
Computing Group (TCG). The Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is the
hardware component for Trusted Computing. The tpm-tools package
provides tools for enablement and configuration of the TPM and
associated interfaces. Also look inside the trousers package for more
software for TC.

The trousers package provides a TSS implementation through the help of
a user-space daemon, the tcsd, and a library Trousers aims to be
compliant to the 1.1b and 1.2 TSS specifications as available from the
Trusted Computing website http://www.trustedcomputinggroup.org/.

The package needs the /dev/tpm device file to be present on your
system. It is a character device file major 10 minor 224, 0600 tss:tss.

Utempter is a utility that allows non-privileged applications such as
terminal emulators to modify the utmp database without having to be
setuid root.

An MS Windows emulator, consisting of both runtime and source
compatibility functions. You can run your MS executables with it and
write your Windows programs under Linux and link against the WINE
libraries.

It is not necessary to have a Windows installation to run WINE.

Refer to /usr/share/doc/packages/wine/README.SuSE. There is more
documentation available in that directory. Read 'man wine' for further
information.

You can invoke wine by entering 'wine program.exe'. Configure it by
running 'winecfg'.

This package contains the prepackaged Win32 Gecko rendering engine for use by Wine.

Bugowner

This package contains the basic X.Org terminal program.

zsync is a implementation of rsync over HTTP. It allows updating of files from
a remote Web server without requiring a full download or a special remote
server application. It uses a metafile, which is created on the server,
to determine which parts of a file the user already has; it then downloads
the remaining parts via HTTP. No special server or Web server module is
needed. It also works with gzip files, and content on the server can be
compressed to further reduce download times.

Official released updates for openSUSE 11.4.

AIDE is an intrusion detection system that checks file integrity.

Cabinet (.CAB) files are a form of archive, which Microsoft uses to
distribute their software and things like Windows Font Packs.
cabextract can be used to unpack these files.

Camsource grabs images from a video4linux device (webcam or TV card).
It is modular and has several plug-ins for modifying the image before
displaying it via HTTP or FTP upload.

This is a set of tools that detect rootkit (a program that hides the
presence of attackers) symptoms on a system. Rootkits can hide using
kernel modules, but they always leave some small traces that can be
detected with this program. However, it is always recommended to use
this program from a rescue system or a system with a similar purpose.

Compartment provides all possibilities (chroot, kernel capabilities)
for securely running insecure or untrusted programs. It provides all
necessary options to fine-tune the security tightening process as
needed.

Delay accounting allows the administrator to track the time an
application spends waiting on disk I/O, swap I/O and CPU scheduling.
This can help pin-point resource shortages in a system configuration.

A stacked cryptographic filesystem for Linux.

EtherApe is a graphical network monitor for Unix, modeled after
etherman. Featuring link layer, IP, and TCP modes, it displays network
activity graphically. Hosts and links change in size with traffic.
Various protocols are color coded in the display. It supports ethernet,
FDDI, token ring, ISDN, PPP, and SLIP devices. It can filter traffic to
show and can read traffic from a file as well as live from the network.

This package contains the fetchmsttfonts helper script, which on
running retrieves and unpacks the freely available MS Truetype fonts.

This tool contains simple GTK interface for viewing EXIF information
within JPEG images created by some digital cameras.

gPhoto (GNU Photo) is a command line tool for previewing, retrieving,
and capturing images from a range of supported digital cameras to your
local hard drive. It does not support digital cameras based on the USB
storage protocol, because those can be mounted by Linux directly. Find
the list of supported cameras at the following URL:

http://gphoto.org/proj/libgphoto2/support.php

or by running

gphoto2 --list-cameras
