  10 Description: Checks PATH variable for security
  11  Contains two handy programs.
  12  chkpath -- Warns about other users who can write to directories on
  13    your PATH, or rename them, or whatever.  If checkpath gives you a
  14    clean bill of health then nobody but you and root can make command
  15    names mean different things without direct write access to the
  16    program files.
  17  tmpdir -- Creates a temporary directory which can't be subverted by
  18    other users.  Nobody except you and root will be able to read or
  19    write to your temporary directory, or make you refer to files
  20    outside of it by messing with parent directories.

  22 Package: libcheckpath
  23 Architecture: any
  24 Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}
  25 Description: Checks paths for security
  26  Walks a pathname, checking every symlink and directory on the way,
  27  and issuing alerts if any element is writable by someone other than
  28  the calling uid or root.  Useful if you're paranoid.  This package
  29  just contains the shared library.  If you want to write programs which
  30  use this library, you need libcheckpath-dev.

  35 Description: Checks paths for security
  36  Walks a pathname, checking every symlink and directory on the way,
  37  and issuing alerts if any element is writable by someone other than
  38  the calling uid or root.  Useful if you're paranoid.  This package
  39  contains the header files and static libraries you need to compile
  40  programs which use the library.
