Source-reported description

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

The UUID library is used to generate unique identifiers for objects that may be accessible beyond the local system. For instance, they could be used to generate unique HTTP cookies across multiple web servers without communication between the servers, and without fear of a name clash. The generated UUIDs can be reasonably expected to be unique within a system, and unique across all systems, and are compatible with those created by the Open Software Foundation (OSF) Distributed Computing Environment (DCE). All generated UUIDs are either version 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, or version 7. And all are variant 1, meaning compliant with the OSF DCE standard as described in RFC4122. Versions 6 and 7 are not yet standardized. They are presented here as proposed in RFC4122bis, version 14, and may change in the future. RFC4122bis is noted to replace RFC4122, if approved.

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.
