4*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  This package installs the 'getent' utility, which allows to
5*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  get entries from Name Service Switch libraries. For glibc
6*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  toolchains, it's the real getent program from the C library
7*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  that gets installed, which is NSS-capable. For uclibc and
8*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  musl toolchains, it's a simple wrapper script that emulates
9*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  getent's behavior, since there is no NSS support in uclibc
10*4882a593Smuzhiyun	  and musl.
