+%description
+The libevent API provides a mechanism to execute a callback function
+when a specific event occurs on a file descriptor or after a timeout
+has been reached. libevent is meant to replace the asynchronous event
+loop found in event driven network servers. An application just needs
+to call event_dispatch() and can then add or remove events dynamically
+without having to change the event loop.
