Description: New set of tools for working with SquashFS images - shared library
SquashFS is a highly compressed read-only filesystem for Linux, optimized
for small size and high packing density. It is widely used in embedded
systems and bootable live media.
.
SquashFS supports many different compression formats, such as zstd, xz,
zlib or lzo for both data and metadata compression. It has many features
expected from popular filesystems, such as extended attributes and support
for NFS export.
.
As the name suggests, this is not the original user space tooling for
SquashFS. Here are some of the features that primarily distinguish this
package from the original:
- reproducible SquashFS images, i.e. deterministic packing without
any local time stamps,
- Linux `gen_init_cpio` like file listing for micro managing the
file system contents, permissions, and ownership without having to
replicate the file system (and especially permissions) locally,
- support for SELinux contexts file (see selabel_file(5)) to generate
SELinux labels.
.
This package contains the C libraries needed to run executables that use
the squashfs-tools-ng library.
