libzypp is the package management library that powers applications like YaST, zypper and the openSUSE/SLE implementation of PackageKit.

  - an API for package repository management, supporting most common
    repository metadata formats and signed repositories
  - an API for solving packages, products, patterns and patches (installation,
    removal, update and distribution upgrade operations) dependencies, with
    additional features like locking
  - an API for comitting the transaction to the system over a rpm target;
    supporting deltarpm calculation, media changing and installation order
    calculation
  - an API for browsing available and installed software, with some facilities
    for programs with an user interface
  - a suite of maintained solving testcases representing common and uncommon
    operations on Linux software management

This package contains the architecture-independent files for the libzypp library.
