The J-Link software gives you the USB drivers needed for your system,
a number of utilities as well as a dynamically linkable library used
by most of the IDEs and debuggers using J-Link. Also included are
a number of sample setup scripts for devices needing one as well as
documentation.

NOTES:
1. This SlackBuild is not sbopkg compatible because source download
   requires licence acceptance (the link provided in .info points to
   download site) and the source tarball name is different from the
   resulting package name.

2. This SlackBuild repackages the official J-Link binary package.

3. The official binary package bundles libedit, which is also
   available from slackbuilds.org so I decided to go with the one from
   slackbuilds.org and not with the bundled one. BTW, ldd shows that
   libedit is not used at all.

4. The original udev rules change the device permissions to 0666.
   This SlackBuild modifies the rules, so that the permissions are
   0664 and the group is plugdev. Make sure to make yourself a member
   of this group.
