     (synopsis
      "Hash library of database functions compatible with traditional dbm")
     (description
-     "GNU dbm (or GDBM, for short) is a library of database functions
-that use extensible hashing and work similar to the standard UNIX dbm.
-These routines are provided to a programmer needing to create and
-manipulate a hashed database.
-
-The basic use of GDBM is to store key/data pairs in a data file.  Each
-key must be unique and each key is paired with only one data item.
-
-The library provides primitives for storing key/data pairs, searching
-and retrieving the data by its key and deleting a key along with its
-data.  It also support sequential iteration over all key/data pairs in a
-database.
-
-For compatibility with programs using old UNIX dbm function, the package
-also provides traditional dbm and ndbm interfaces.")
