#### I2C and SMBus user-space tools

This package contains an heterogeneous set of I2C tools for the Linux kernel
as well as an I2C library. The tools were originally part of the lm-sensors
project but were finally split into their own package for convenience. The
library is used by some of the tools, but can also be used by third-party
applications. The tools and library compile, run and have been tested on
GNU/Linux.

The latest version of the code can be downloaded from:
<https://i2c.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/I2C_Tools>

Snap build code available at:
