+Description: APT's package managment runtime library
+ This library provides the common functionality for searching and
+ managing packages as well as information about packages.
+ Higher-level package managers can depend upon this library.
+ .
+ This includes:
+ * retrieval of information about packages from multiple sources
+ * retrieval of packages and all dependent packages
+ needed to satisfy a request either through an internal
+ solver or by interfacing with an external one
+ * authenticating the sources and validating the retrieved data
+ * installation and removal of packages in the system
+ * providing different transports to retrieve data over cdrom, ftp,
+ http, rsh as well as an interface to add more transports like
+ https (apt-transport-https) and debtorrent (apt-transport-debtorrent).
