Description-en: CERNLIB data analysis suite - extra programs
CERNLIB is a suite of data analysis tools and libraries created for
use in physics experiments, but also with applications to other
fields such as the biological sciences.
.
This metapackage provides a few additional CERNLIB programs not included
in any other CERNLIB package. Very few people are likely to be
interested in them; currently they include zftp, pawserv and zserv.
The latter two programs run as daemons through inetd and may
raise concerns about the system's security.
.
Installing this package along with the 'cernlib' metapackage will supply
a complete set of all CERNLIB programs and libraries, except for those
not included in Debian due to licensing reasons.
