+ (description
+ "Lziprecover is a data recovery tool and decompressor for files in the
lzip
+compressed data format (.lz). It can test the integrity of lzip files, extract
+data from damaged ones, and repair most files with small errors (up to one
+single-byte error per member) entirely.
+
+Lziprecover is not a replacement for regular backups, but a last line of
defence
+when even the backups are corrupt. It can recover files by merging the good
+parts of two or more damaged copies, such as can be easily produced by running
address@hidden on a failing device.
+
+This package also includes @command{unzcrash}, a tool to test the robustness of
+decompressors when faced with corrupted input.")
