- libc6 (>= 2.14)
purelibc is an overlay library that converts the glibc, the GNU standard C
library, into a pure library, i.e. a library that can upcall instead of
running the system calls. With purelibc a process can trace (and virtualize)
its own calls. It is used, for instance, by the UMView modules to support
the recursion of virtual environments.
.
purelibc, along with UMView, is part of the View-OS project:

.
This package contains the library, that can be linked with an application or
preloaded using the LD_PRELOAD environment variable.
