+define Package/borgbackup/description
+  BorgBackup (short: Borg) is a deduplicating backup program.
+  Optionally, it supports compression and authenticated encryption.
+
+  The main goal of Borg is to provide an efficient and secure way to backup data.
+  The data deduplication technique used makes Borg suitable for daily backups since only changes are stored. The authenticated encryption technique makes it suitable for backups to not fully trusted targets.
