+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
+# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
+# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
+# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

+libunwind: libunwind (API to determine the call-chain of a program)
+libunwind:
+libunwind: The primary goal of libunwind is to define a portable and efficient C
+libunwind: programming interface (API) to determine the call-chain of a program.
+libunwind: The API additionally provides the means to manipulate the preserved
+libunwind: (callee-saved) state of each call-frame and to resume execution at
+libunwind: any point in the call-chain (non-local goto). Some uses for this API
+libunwind: include exception handling, debuggers, introspection, or implementing
+libunwind: an extremely efficient version of setjmp().
