+    (description
+     "The @code{snapshot} package helps the owner of a LaTeX document obtain a list
+of the external dependencies of the document, in a form that can be embedded
+at the top of the document.  It provides a snapshot of the current processing
+context of the document, insofar as it can be determined from inside LaTeX.
+If a document contains such a dependency list, then it becomes possible to
+arrange that the document be processed always with the same versions of
+everything, in order to ensure the same output.  This could be useful for
+someone wanting to keep a LaTeX document on hand and consistently reproduce an
+identical DVI file from it, on the fly; or for someone wanting to shield
+a document during the final stages of its production cycle from unexpected
+side effects of routine upgrades to the TeX system.")
