+;; There are two packages for net-tools. The first, net-tools, is more recent
+;; and probably safer to use with untrusted inputs (i.e. the internet).  The

+;; package test suites and should never be referred to by a built package. Use

+;; When we are able to rebuild many packages (i.e. core-updates), we can update
+;; net-tools-for-tests if appropriate.
