The operator-libs-linux charm provides a set of charm libraries which can be used for managing and manipulating Debian packages, snap packages, system repositories, users and groups, and other operations that charm authors may need to carry out when authoring machine charms.

This charm is not meant to be deployed itself, and is used as a mechanism for hosting libraries only.

Each library contains information on usage and code examples. They are meant to be complete as standalone libraries, and should be managed as charm libraries, with installation via fetch-lib, after which they may be imported and used as normal charms.

• apt - a library that enables the installation of Debian packages and management of system package repositories.
• snap - a library for installing and working with snap packages.
• systemd - a library for manipulating services managed by the systemd init system.
• passwd - a library for manipulating Linux users and groups.

Please see the Juju SDK docs for guidelines on enhancements to this charm following best practice guidelines, and CONTRIBUTING.md for developer guidance.
