+SUMMARY="A cryptography library"
+DESCRIPTION="Botan is a cryptography library written in C++. \
+Its goal is to offer the tools necessary to implement a range of practical \
+systems, such as TLS/DTLS, PKIX certificate handling, PKCS#11 and TPM \
+hardware support, password hashing, and post quantum crypto schemes. \
+Botan also has a C89 API specifically designed to be easy to call from other \
+languages."
