Source: parchive Section: utils Priority: optional Maintainer: Rene Weber Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 9) Standards-Version: 3.9.7 Homepage: http://parchive.sourceforge.net Package: parchive Architecture: any Depends: ${misc:Depends}, ${shlibs:Depends} Description: Use PAR files to reconstruct missing parts of multi-part archives This utility applies the data-recovery capability concepts of RAID-like systems to the posting and downloading of multi-part archives on USENET by providing the ability to create and use redundant recovery records. It supports the 'Reed-Soloman Code' implementation that allows for recovery of any 'X' volumes for 'X' parity volumes present. It is popularly used on USENET postings, but is not limited to this use. . The Debian parchive package supports "legacy" version 1.0 PAR files. The Debian par2 package supports version 2.0 PAR files. . Upstream source: http://parchive.sourceforge.net/
