This is the Debian prepackaged version of original-awk, the original awk used in the first releases of Unix. It was downloaded from https://github.com/onetrueawk/awk/archive/ The changes made for Debian have been fairly minimal: * Renamed awk to original-awk. * Addition of the debian/* files. This package was first put together by Santiago Vila , who currently maintains it.
