Package: dmsetup (2:1.02.39-1)

The Linux Kernel Device Mapper userspace library

The Linux Kernel Device Mapper is the LVM (Linux Logical Volume Management) Team's implementation of a minimalistic kernel-space driver that handles volume management, while keeping knowledge of the underlying device layout in user-space. This makes it useful for not only LVM, but EVMS, software raid, and other drivers that create "virtual" block devices.

This package contains a utility for modifying device mappings.
