Description-en: Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) runtime tools
libmtp is a library for communicating with MTP aware devices in POSIX
compliant operating systems. It implements MTP Basic, the subset
proposed for standardization.
.
The Media Transfer Protocol (commonly referred to as MTP) is a devised
set of custom extensions to support the transfer of music files on
USB digital audio players and movie files on USB portable media players.
.
This package provides mtp-probe, a program to probe newly connected
device interfaces from userspace to determine if they are MTP devices,
used for udev rules.
