In information theory, an erasure code is a forward error correction (FEC)
 code for the binary erasure channel, which transforms a message of symbols
 into a longer message (code word) with symbols such that the original
 message can be recovered from a subset of the symbols.

 Jerasure is a shared library that been designed to be modular, fast and
 flexible. It is used in storage systems such as Swift and Ceph to add fault
 tolerance.

 This package contains the shared library.
