autoconf: GNU autoconf 2.13
autoconf:
autoconf: Autoconf is an extensible package of m4 macros that produce shell
autoconf: scripts to automatically configure software source code packages.
autoconf: These scripts can adapt the packages to many kinds of UNIX-like
autoconf: systems without manual user intervention.  Autoconf creates a
autoconf: configuration script for a package from a template file that lists the
autoconf: operating system features that the package can use, in the form of m4
autoconf: macro calls.
autoconf: You must install the "m4" package to be able to use autoconf.
autoconf:
automake: GNU automake 1.4
automake:
automake: This is Automake, a Makefile generator.  It was inspired by the 4.4BSD
automake: make and include files, but aims to be portable and to conform to the
automake: GNU standards for Makefile variables and targets.
automake: Automake is a Perl script.  The input files are called Makefile.am.
automake: The output files are called Makefile.in; they are intended for use
automake: with Autoconf.  Automake requires certain things to be done in your
automake: configure.in.
automake: You must install the "m4" and "perl" packages to be able to use
automake: automake.
bin86:    bin86-0.4
bin86:
bin86:    This is a complete 8086 assembler and loader which can make 32-bit
bin86:    code for the 386+ processors (under linux it's used only to create
bin86:    the 16-bit bootsector and setup binaries).
bin86:
bin86:    The bin86 package is needed to compile the kernel.

byacc:    Berkeley Yacc
byacc:
byacc:    Berkeley Yacc is an LALR(1) parser generator.  Berkeley Yacc
byacc:    has been made as compatible as possible with AT&T Yacc.  Berkeley

byacc:    Yacc documentation.  Specifications that take advantage of 
byacc:    undocumented features of AT&T Yacc will probably be rejected.
byacc:    If you skip this package and install GNU bison, a /usr/bin/yacc
byacc:    shell script will be created which will allow you to use bison
byacc:    instead. (It contains 'bison -y $*')

gcl:      work was begun in 1987 by William Schelter and continued through 1994.
gcl:      In 1994 AKCL was released as GCL (GNU Common Lisp) under the GNU
gcl:      Public Library License.

jpeg6:    Independent JPEG Group's JPEG software version 6b
jpeg6:
jpeg6:    Software to implement JPEG image compression and decompression.  JPEG
jpeg6:    (pronounced 'jay-peg') is a standardized compression method for
jpeg6:    full-color and gray-scale images.  JPEG is intended for compressing
jpeg6:    'real-world' scenes; cartoons and other non-realistic images are not
jpeg6:    its strong suit.  JPEG is lossy, however, on typical images of
jpeg6:    real-world scenes, very good compression levels can be obtained with
jpeg6:    no visible change, and amazingly high compression levels are possible
jpeg6:    if you can tolerate a low-quality image.
