Commands for Manipulating Filesystem Extended Attributes
A set of tools for manipulating extended attributes on filesystem objects, in particular getfattr(1) and setfattr(1). An attr(1) command is also provided which is largely compatible with the SGI IRIX tool of the same name.

Extended crypt library for DES, MD5, Blowfish and others
libxcrypt is a modern library for one-way hashing of passwords. It supports a wide variety of both modern and historical hashing methods: yescrypt, gost-yescrypt, scrypt, bcrypt, sha512crypt, sha256crypt, md5crypt, SunMD5, sha1crypt, NT, bsdicrypt, bigcrypt, and descrypt. It provides the traditional Unix crypt and crypt_r interfaces, as well as a set of extended interfaces pioneered by Openwall Linux, crypt_rn, crypt_ra, crypt_gensalt, crypt_gensalt_rn, and crypt_gensalt_ra. libxcrypt is intended to be used by login(1), passwd(1), and other similar programs; that is, to hash a small number of passwords during an interactive authentication dialogue with a human. It is not suitable for use in bulk password-cracking applications, or in any other situation where speed is more important than careful handling of sensitive data. However, it is intended to be fast and lightweight enough for use in servers that must field thousands of login attempts per minute.
The GNU C Library project provides the core libraries for the GNU system and GNU/Linux systems, as well as many other systems that use Linux as the kernel. These libraries provide critical APIs including ISO C11, POSIX.1-2008, BSD, OS-specific APIs and more. These APIs include such foundational facilities as open, read, write, malloc, printf, getaddrinfo, dlopen, pthread_create, crypt, login, exit and more.
The audit-libs package contains the dynamic libraries needed for applications to use the audit framework.
A set of system configuration and setup files
The setup package contains a set of important system configuration and setup files, such as passwd, group, and profile.
Tools for managing accounts and shadow password files
This package includes the necessary programs for converting plain password files to the shadow password format and to manage user and group accounts.
SELinux binary policy manipulation library
libsemanage is the policy management library. Using libsepol and libselinux to interact with the SELinux system, it also calls helper programs for loading policy and for checking whether the file_contexts configuration is valid.
A set of basic GNU tools commonly used in shell scripts
These are the GNU core utilities. This package is the combination of the old GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages.
Pluggable Authentication Modules for Linux
PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is a system of libraries that handle the authentication tasks of applications (services) on the system.
