A library for changing configuration files

Edit Package augeas

A library for programmatically editing configuration files. Augeas
parses configuration files into a tree structure, which it exposes
through its public API. Changes made through the API are written back
to the initially read files.

The transformation works very hard to preserve comments and formatting
details. It is controlled by ``lens'' definitions that describe the
file format and the transformation into a tree.

- update to 0.9.0:
  - augtool: keep history in ~/.augeas/history
  - add aug_srun API function; this makes it possible to run a sequence of
    commands through the API
  - aug_mv: report error AUG_EMVDESC on attempts to move a node into one of
    its descendants
  - path expressions: allow whitespace inside names, making '/files/etc/foo
    bar/baz' a legal path, but parse [expr1 or expr2] and [expr1 and expr2]
    as the logical and/or of expr1 and expr2
  - path expressions: interpret escape sequences in regexps; since '.' does
    not match newlines, it has to be possible to write '.|\n' to match any
    character
  - path expressions: allow concatenating strings and regexps; add
    comparison operator '!~'; add function 'glob'; allow passing a nodeset
    to function 'regexp'
  - store the names of the functions available in path expressions under
    /augeas/version
  - fix several smaller memory leaks
