+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

+python-bigfloat: python-bigfloat (Arbitrary precision floating point arithmetic)
+python-bigfloat:
+python-bigfloat: The bigfloat module is a Python wrapper for the MPFR library for
+python-bigfloat: arbitrary precision floating-point reliable arithmetic.
+python-bigfloat:
+python-bigfloat: The MPFR library is a well-known portable C library for
+python-bigfloat: arbitrary-precision arithmetic on floating-point numbers. It provides
+python-bigfloat: precise control over precisions and rounding modes and gives
+python-bigfloat: correctly-rounded reproducible platform-independent results.
