Description Jon Griffin 2002-07-14 19:43:21 UTC
Please find attached syncdir-1.0.tar.gz containing Bruce Guenters syncdir 
library.

syncdir provides an alternate implementation for open, link, rename, and unlink
that executes a fsync on any modified directories.

It is mainly used in the patched qmail ebuild I will submit soon. It is at 
http://untroubled.org/syncdir/.

I believe this ebuild should be in sys-libs/syncdir as it affects system 
libraries if used. It has no dependencies.
