Package: calife (3.0pre5-1)

Provides super user privileges to specific users

Calife is a lightweight alternative to Sudo. It allows selected users to obtain a shell with the identity of root, or another user, after entering their own password. This permits the system administrator to grant root privileges without sharing the root password.
