Doodle is a desktop search engine for Linux. It searches your hard drive for files using pattern matching on meta-data. It extracts file-format specific meta-data using libextractor and builds a suffix tree to index the files. The index can then be searched rapidly. It is similar to locate, but can take advantage of information such as ID3 tags. It is possible to do full-text indexing using the appropriate libextractor plugins. It also supports using FAM to keep the database up-to-date.
The DUP System is a language for productive, parallel, and distributed stream processing on POSIX systems. Programming with DUP is similar to writing shell scripts with pipes except that filters can have multiple inputs and outputs. Furthermore, the computation can be spread across multiple computers. A distinguishing characteristic of DUP compared to other streaming languages is that filters can be written in almost any programming language. The DUP System distribution includes the runtime system and a collection of over a dozen multi-stream filters.
libextractor is a library used to extract meta-data from files of arbitrary type. It is designed to use helper-libraries to perform the actual extraction, and to be trivially extendable by linking against external extractors for additional file types. The goal is to provide developers of file-sharing networks, file managers, and WWW-indexing bots with a universal library to obtain meta-data about files. It includes a shell-command and bindings for Java (JNI) and Python.
GNU libmicrohttpd is a small C library for embedding HTTP server functionality into other applications. It is reentrant, fast, supports HTTP 1.1, and permits listening on multiple ports. The API is simple and still powerful enough to allow programmers to use the entire HTTP feature set. SSL/TLS support is available as an option.
GNUnet is a peer-to-peer framework with focus on providing security. All peer-to-peer messages in the network are confidential and authenticated. The framework provides a transport abstraction layer and can currently encapsulate the network traffic in UDP (IPv4 and IPv6), TCP (IPv4 and IPv6), HTTP, or SMTP messages. GNUnet supports accounting to provide contributing nodes with better service. The primary service build on top of the framework is anonymous file sharing.
i18nHTML is a collection of scripts that can be used to write Web pages that visitors can translate into their respective native languages. It uses a database to match sentences from the Web page against translations and defines a set of PHP functions that generate either the translated HTML sentences or the original (typically English) text with decorations that allow users to provide translations. It requires that internationalized pages be written using the functions but does not constrain the page design in any way. Internationalized pages can be updated without losing existing translations for sentences that were not changed.
Jamit (Java Access Modifiers Inference Tool) allows you to infer tighter access modifiers for Java code. Analyzing bytecode, it can find out if fields or methods may be declared private, default, protected, or final. Engineering software with Jamit can thus help increase hiding and keep interfaces as small as possible. The most useful application for Jamit is dead code elimination. Jamit can be used to find out which methods and classes are unreachable and automatically eliminate the corresponding code, saving space for binary distributions.
Kacheck/J is an encapsulation checker for Java. It infers which types are confined according to the definition given in Encapsulating Objects with Confined Types. Objects of confined type do not escape their enclosing package. Confined types allow you to increase the modularization of your code. Since objects of confined type to not escape their defining package, it is certain that no code outside of the package will directly depend on the interface or implementation of the confined type. Kacheck/J allows you to analyze your code for confinement and can print a list of statements that lead to confinement violations. Confined types are also interesting from a security perspective since they can guarantee that access to certain data-structures is only possible for code in the same package.
The Runabout is an extension of the Java libraries that adds two-argument multi-dispatch to Java without changing the language or the VM. It uses reflection to find visit methods, which are invoked using dynamically generated and loaded code. The Runabout does not need a special compiler or changes to Java's syntax. Dispatch with the Runabout is fairly fast, typically a factor of two to ten times slower than double dispatch. The Runabout is useful since it can help to make code faster and more readable. For example, a sequence of instanceof tests is a clear sign that a Runabout should be used instead.

Re: Also Requires gobject-2.0 Note that as of 0.5.3 LE still needs gobject-2.0 but the ordinary shared version will do fine now.
Re: Also Requires gobject-2.0 Well, gobject-2.0 is part of glib, so it is listed as a dependency. What is more tricky is that we need the static, relocatable version of the library -- but try ...
