Source-reported description

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

Expect is a tool primarily for automating interactive applications, such as telnet, ftp, passwd, fsck, rlogin, tip, and more. Expect really makes this stuff trivial. Expect is also useful for testing these applications. It is described in many books, articles, papers, and FAQs. There is an entire book on it available from O'Reilly.

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.
