Description: Missing manly parts of UNIX API for Python
Eunuchs is a library of Python extension that complement the standard
libraries in parts where full support for the UNIX API (or the Linux
API) is missing.
.
Most of the functions wrapped by Eunuchs are low-level, dirty, but
absolutely necessary functions for real systems programming. The aim is
to have the functions added to mainstream Python libraries.
.
Current list of functions included:
.
- fchdir(2)
.
- recvmsg(2) and sendmsg(2), including use of cmsg(3)
.
This is a dummy package that depends on the correct version of
python-eunuchs for the default version of Python.
