Development files for zlib, a data compression library

zlib is a general-purpose lossless data-compression library, implementing an API for the DEFLATE algorithm, the latter of which is being used by, for example, gzip and the ZIP archive format. This subpackage holds the development headers for the library. The zlib data format is itself portable across platforms. Unlike the LZW compression method used in unix compress(1) and in the GIF image format, the compression method currently used in zlib essentially never expands the data. (LZW can double or triple the file size in extreme cases.) zlib's memory footprint is also independent of the input data and can be reduced, if necessary, at some cost in compression.

Package file paths (24)

Paths come from the repository package-file index for the observed builds. They describe archive/package associations, not every file that will exist on a running system after maintainer scripts, alternatives, generated state, diversions, or installation choices.

Versions, suites, and repositories

Each row is recorded package-index metadata for one version, architecture, suite, and repository. Names, URLs, and sizes are source-reported; a link is a potentially mutable retrieval location, not an OpenFactory redistribution claim or proof that OpenFactory retained the artifact bytes.

Checksums and observation dates

For an APT source, signature verification authenticates the repository metadata chain and the Packages index containing this source-reported artifact digest. It does not certify package safety.

Catalog record completeness

The completeness score measures metadata coverage, not software quality, security, compatibility, or suitability.
