* Package name    : libgzstream

  Description     : provide functionality of zlib C-library in a C++ iostream
 Gzstream is a small C++ library, basically just a wrapper, that provides
 the functionality of the zlib C-library in a C++ iostream.


Remark: This very small lib is embedded in several packages as code
copy[1].  While this package is by no means in the field of Debian Med
interest I think it is a good idea to do things right and since I need
it for a Debian Med package I simply maintain it for the moment here:
   https://anonscm.debian.org/git/debian-med/libgzstream.git
ACLs are set so any DD can commit here.  Moving the package to some
more fitting VCS / team is fine.
