Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

Mtools is a collection of utilities for accessing MS-DOS files. Mtools allow you to read, write and move around MS-DOS filesystem files (normally on MS-DOS floppy disks). Mtools supports Windows95 style long file names, OS/2 XDF disks, and 2m disks Mtools should be installed if you need to use MS-DOS disks

Mapping provenance

Only source-backed identity signals create public cross-OS links. A reviewer can later approve or dispute an inferred relationship without rewriting native package history.
