+class Musl(Package):
+    """Musl is a libc, an implementation of the standard library
+    functionality described in the ISO C and POSIX standards, plus common
+    extensions, intended for use on Linux-based systems. Whereas the kernel
+    (Linux) governs access to hardware, memory, filesystems, and the
+    privileges for accessing these resources, the C library is responsible
+    for providing the actual C function interfaces userspace applications
+    see, and for constructing higher-level buffered stdio, memory
+    allocation management, thread creation and synchronization operations,
+    and so on using the lower-level interfaces the kernel provides, as well
+    as for implementing pure library routines of the C language like
+    strstr, snprintf, strtol, exp, sqrt, etc.
+
+    Musl is a new general-purpose implementation of the C library. It is
+    lightweight, fast, simple, free, and aims to be correct in the sense of
+    standards-conformance and safety."""
