    <title>DESCRIPTION</title>

    <para>This manual page documents briefly the
      <command>&dhpackage;</command> package .</para>

    <para>This manual page was written for the &debian; distribution
      because the original program does not have a manual page.

    <para><command>&dhpackage;</command> is a wrapper program to run
    the <command>lmbench</command> benchmarking suite in Debian GNU/Linux.
    Due to the nature of this program you should first check that the 
    system is in the condition you want to test it and be sure to run
    this as the root user.
	</para>
    <para><command>&dhpackage;</command> will first configure the 
    benchmark and adapt it to your system and then run it. The real
    programs that make the benchmark are at <file>/usr/share/lmbench/</file>.
