Package: libdevmapper1.02.1 Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: libs Installed-Size: 481 Maintainer: Debian LVM Team Architecture: amd64 Multi-Arch: same Source: lvm2 (2.03.31-2) Version: 2:1.02.205-2 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.38), libselinux1 (>= 3.1~), libudev1 (>= 183), dmsetup (>= 2:1.02.205-2~) Description: Linux Kernel Device Mapper userspace library The Linux Kernel Device Mapper is the LVM (Linux Logical Volume Management) Team's implementation of a minimalistic kernel-space driver that handles volume management, while keeping knowledge of the underlying device layout in user-space. This makes it useful for not only LVM, but software raid, and other drivers that create "virtual" block devices. . This package contains the (user-space) shared library for accessing the device-mapper; it allows usage of the device-mapper through a clean, consistent interface (as opposed to through kernel ioctls).
