  Description     : storage device abstraction layer

Devlabel is a program which dynamically creates symbolic links to
disk/partition names. It uses the disk's and/or partition's unique
identifiers to keep the symlink pointed to the correct location even if
the underlying partition's name has changed. So, regardless of whether
/dev/sdb6 becomes /dev/sdc6, devlabel figures this all out and points
the symlink to the correct data.

I'm closing this ITP because I don't think it's worth proceeding with, for a
few reasons:

* upstream has been totally uncommunicative
* it doesn't play well with devfs, which precludes its use with stock Debian
  kernels
* it's largely redundant, given you can mount by label or filesystem UUID
  (it's really only of benefit for filesystems that don't support this e.g.
  swap)
