+define Package/libmnl/description
+ libmnl is a minimalistic user-space library oriented to Netlink developers.
+ There are a lot of common tasks in parsing, validating, constructing of
+ both the Netlink header and TLVs that are repetitive and easy to get wrong.
+ This library aims to provide simple helpers that allows you to re-use code
+ and to avoid re-inventing the wheel. The main features of this library are:
+ .
+ * Small: the shared library requires around 30KB for an x86-based computer.
+ .
+ * Simple: this library avoids complexity and elaborated abstractions that
+   tend to hide Netlink details.
+ .
+ * Easy to use: the library simplifies the work for Netlink-wise developers.
+   It provides functions to make socket handling, message building, validating,
+   parsing and sequence tracking, easier.
+ .
+ * Easy to re-use: you can use the library to build your own abstraction layer
+   on top of this library.
+ .
+ * Decoupling: the interdependency of the main bricks that compose the library
+   is reduced, i.e. the library provides many helpers, but the programmer is not
+   forced to use them.
