   attr 2.5.1 (tools for using extended attributes on filesystems)

   This package contains a set of tools for manipulating extended
   attributes (name:value pairs associated permanently with files
   and directories) on filesystem objects, and the library and
   header files needed to develop programs which make use of extended
   attributes. Extended attributes are used to provide additional
   functionality to a filesystem. For example, Access Control Lists
   (ACLs) are implemented using extended attributes.
