Description-en: User-mode Linux (utility programs)
User-mode Linux is a port of the Linux kernel to its own system call

as a user process under another Linux kernel. This is useful for
kernel development, sandboxing, jailing, experimentation, and
many other things.

This package contains userspace utilities for use with User-mode
Linux, including uml_mconsole, uml_moo, uml_switch, uml_net and
