    Description : UPnP library, based on Pupnp code, extensively rewritten


    libnpupnp is a rewrite of the venerable libupnp, with the objective
    of replacing questionable internal code (XML parser, HTTP server and client) with well maintained external packages (libmicrohttpd, libcurl, expat),
    also using the C++ STL in place of various locally grown containers,
    with a goal to improve safety and reliability (reasonably modern C++,
    no bare pointers etc.).
    As its predecessor, libupnp, libnpupnp provides developers with an
    API and open source code for building control points, devices, and
    bridges that are compliant with Version 1.1 of the Universal Plug and
    Play Device Architecture Specification - see http://www.upnp.org/ for specifications.

    libnpupnp is mostly proposed for packaging as a dependency to upmpdcli (separate message), but it can be used by other applications. For example
    mpd and gerbera can be configured to use it in place of libupnp.
