Other License: 
Package: swbis - Extensions to the POSIX packagin
System name: swbis
Type: GNU

Description:
'Swbis' aims to implement the POSIX packaging standard with useful extensions. 
Working utilities include swpackage(8), swverify(8), swcopy(8), and 
swinstall(8). GPG/PGP signing and verification of tar archives is supported as 
well as an installed software catalog form that allows direct use of gpg(1) for 
verification of the GPG signature in the package database. swcopy and swinstall 
are network transparent by direct use of SSH and support multiple SSH hops for 
easy access to hosts behind a firewall. Neither has to be installed on the 
remote target host.


Other Software Required:
None

Other Comments:
'swbis' is already a GNU project.
