NAME

       lsb - Linux Standard Base support for Debian

DESCRIPTION

       The lsb package provides infrastructure for installing Linux Standard Base applications on
       Debian.  This manual page is designed to refer system  adminstrators  and  others  to  the
       documentation available.

       The  Linux  Standard  Base  is a common runtime environment for third-party packages.  The
       goal of the LSB is to make it easy to create binary packages that will run  on  any  Linux
       distribution.  For more information on the standard, please see the LSB web site.
