Source-reported description

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

mold is a faster drop-in replacement for existing Unix linkers. It is several times faster than LLVM lld linker, the second-fastest open-source linker. mold is created for increasing developer productivity by reducing build time especially in rapid debug-edit-rebuild cycles.

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.
