Cernlib is a suite of data analysis tools and libraries created for use in physics experiments, but also with applications to other fields such as the biological sciences.

this package includes the lesstif-dependent parts of the library pawlib, required by the cernlib application paw++. note that in order to compile and link programs against this library, you must also install the libpawlib-lesstif3-dev package. the remainder of pawlib is provided in the package libpawlib2-gfortran.

the comis portion of pawlib is functional on 64-bit machines only when statically linked.
