libbytesize1 - 2.5-1 main

Many projects need to work with sizes in bytes (be it sizes of storage
space, memory,...) and all of them need to deal with the same issues
like:
.
* How to get a human-readable string for the given size?
* How to store the given size so that no significant information is lost?
* If we store the size in bytes, what if the given size gets over the
MAXUINT64 value? How to interpret sizes entered by users according
to their locale and typing conventions?
* How to deal with the decimal/binary units (MB vs. MiB) ambiguity?
.
This library aims to be as much generally usable as possible, small, fast and
be easily interfaced from other languages.
