+config BR2_PACKAGE_SLIRP
+ bool "slirp"
+ help
+ The Spice project aims to provide a complete open source
+ solution for interaction with virtualized desktop devices.
+ The Spice project deals with both the virtualized devices
+ and the front-end. Interaction between front-end and
+ back-end is done using VD-Interfaces.
+
+ This package implements the slirp-part for Spice.
+ Slirp emulates a PPP or SLIP connection over a normal terminal.

+
+ NOTE:
+ This package has some history of a unique kind:
+ - originally developped as 'slirp' by Danny Gasparovski, and
+ seemingly abandonned (developper /disapeared/)
+ - then re-maintained at sourceforge by "Kelly", up to some
+ time around 2009: http://slirp.sourceforge.net/
+ - during that period, QEMU (Fabrice BELLARD) forked the code
+ and included it in QEMU
+ - and it was imported from this breed by the Spice project
+ around May 2009
+ - which is what we use here
