+# tdbutil
+#
+# Purpose:
+# Contains functions that are used to pack and unpack data
+# from Samba's tdb databases. Samba sometimes represents complex
+# data structures as a single value in a database. These functions
+# allow other python scripts to package data types into a single python
+# string and unpackage them.
+#
+#
+# XXXXX: This code is no longer used; it's just here for testing
+# compatibility with the new (much faster) C implementation.
