Package: klibc-utils

Description: small utilities built with klibc for early boot
This package contains a collection of programs that are linked against klibc. These duplicate some of the functionality of a regular Linux toolset, but are typically much smaller than their full-function counterparts. They are intended for inclusion in initramfs images and embedded systems.
