The bc package includes bc and dc. Bc is an arbitrary precision numeric processing arithmetic language. Dc is an interactive arbitrary precision stack based calculator, which can be used as a text mode calculator. Install the bc package if you need its number handling capabilities or if you would like to use its text mode calculator.
Bcache is a Linux kernel block layer cache. It allows one or more fast disk drives such as flash-based solid state drives (SSDs) to act as a cache for one or more slower hard disk drives. This package contains the utilities for manipulating bcache.
The Byte Code Engineering Library (formerly known as JavaClass) is intended to give users a convenient possibility to analyze, create, and manipulate (binary) Java class files (those ending with .class). Classes are represented by objects which contain all the symbolic information of the given class: methods, fields and byte code instructions, in particular. Such objects can be read from an existing file, be transformed by a program (e.g. a class loader at run-time) and dumped to a file again. An even more interesting application is the creation of classes from scratch at run-time. The Byte Code Engineering Library (BCEL) may be also useful if you want to learn about the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and the format of Java .class files. BCEL is already being used successfully in several projects such as compilers, optimizers, obsfuscators and analysis tools, the most popular probably being the Xalan XSLT processor at Apache.
bcg729 is an opensource implementation of both encoder and decoder of the ITU G729 Annex A speech codec. The library written in C 99 is fully portable and can be executed on many platforms including both ARM processor and x86. bcg729 supports concurrent channels encoding/decoding for multi call application such conferencing.
This package contains the 'bcm43xx-fwcutter' tool which is used to extract firmware for the Broadcom network devices, from the official Windows, MacOS or Linux drivers. See the README.Fedora file shipped in the package's documentation for instructions on using this tool.
