Description-en: parse and manage key=value configuration files - development files
libeconf is a highly flexible and configureable library to parse and manage
key=value configuration files. It reads configuration file snippets from
different directories and builds the final configuration file for the
application from it.
.
The first file is the vendor provided configuration file. There are two
methods of overriding this vendor settings: copy the file from /usr/vendordir
to /etc and modify the settings. Alternatively, a directory named
file.suffix.d/ within /etc can be created, with drop-in files in the form
name.suffix. This files contain only the changes of the specific settings the
user is interested in. There can be several such drop-in files, they are
processed in lexicographic order of their filename.
.
This package provides the development files needed at compile-time.
