Package: libxcb1 Status: install ok half-configured Priority: optional Section: libs Installed-Size: 301 Maintainer: Debian X Strike Force Architecture: amd64 Multi-Arch: same Source: libxcb (1.17.0-2) Version: 1.17.0-2+b1 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.38), libxau6 (>= 1:1.0.9), libxdmcp6 Description: X C Binding This package contains the library files needed to run software using libxcb, the X C Binding. . The XCB library provides an interface to the X Window System protocol, designed to replace the Xlib interface. XCB provides several advantages over Xlib: . * Size: small library and lower memory footprint * Latency hiding: batch several requests and wait for the replies later * Direct protocol access: one-to-one mapping between interface and protocol * Thread support: access XCB from multiple threads, with no explicit locking * Easy creation of new extensions: automatically generates interface from machine-parsable protocol descriptions Homepage: https://xcb.freedesktop.org
