# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line # up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' # on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must # make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':'. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| nss-mdns: NSS-mDNS (Multicast DNS host name resolution NSS module) nss-mdns: nss-mdns: nss-mdns is a plugin for the GNU Name Service Switch (NSS) nss-mdns: functionality of the GNU C Library (glibc) which provides nss-mdns: host name resolution via via Multicast DNS (a.k.a.
