+J-Link software gives you the USB drivers needed for your system,
 a number of utilities as well as a dynamically linkable library used
 by most of the IDEs and debuggers using J-Link. Also included are
 a number of sample setup scripts for devices needing one as well as
 documentation.

+3. Remember to reload udev rules after installing this package:

+   to 0664 and group is set to _plugdev_. Be sure to make yourself
+   a member of this group to use J-Link probes without _root_.
+   The same perms/group is applied to the J-Link embedded serial ports

-3. The official binary package bundles libedit, which is also
-   available from slackbuilds.org so I decided to go with the one from
-   slackbuilds.org and not with the bundled one. BTW, ldd shows that
-   libedit is not used at all.
+5. If you're looking for replacing ST-LINK/V2 on ST Discovery or
+   Nucleo boards with J-Link, see [here]. It requires Windows
+   to perform the update, but can be done using QEMU with usbredir.
+   Such a converted board is used for testing the J-Link package
