* Package name : bioapi Version : 1.2.2 Upstream Author : Michael R. Crusoe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.qrivy.net/~michael/blua/ * License : ? Programming Lang: (C, C++) Description : Framework for biometric-based authentication The BioAPI provides a high-level generic biometric authentication model; one suited for any form of biometric technology. It covers the basic functions of Enrollment, Verification, and Identification, and includes a database interface to allow a biometric service provider (BSP) to manage the Identification population for optimum performance. This nice framework make.s it possible to use the UPEK Fingerprint Reader. The reader is build in on many laptops. With the pam-extension pam-bioapi we can integrat the authentication to the PAM. A nice howto can be found on http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_enable_the_fingerprint_reader On my system I hafe successful build the deb with the additionl dpatch for building with gcc 4.1 But my packaging-knowlege is not the best... i think the package must be split in to bioapi, bioapi-dev and bioapi-tools. A additions package for the "closed source"-"driver" from UPEK. And the pam-bioapi package shuld also be splittet in a tool package?!
