-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-0398 2010-01-12 20:05:50 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : why Product : Fedora 12 Version : 2.23 Release : 1.fc12 URL : http://why.lri.fr/ Summary : Why software verification platform Description : Why is a software verification platform that applies formal proving tools to annotated programs. It is currently capable of analysis of C (through the included tool "Caduceus"), Java (through the included tool "Krakatoa"), and potentially ML programs with some modification into Why's own ML-like language. Furthermore, Why is capable of analysis of any program that is mapped onto its own internal language. It uses a weakest precondition involving calculus to generate potential theorems necessary for the proof of a program's correctness. It translates these theorems into formats that can be used by external proof assistants (without any extra work, Coq, PVS, HOL Light, Mizar are supported - having one is recommended and Coq is packaged for Fedora) and automated theorem provers (without any extra work, Simplify, Alt-Ergo, Yices, Z3, CVC Lite, Zenon are supported and Zenon is packaged for Fedora) so that these results can be externally proven, resulting in a proof of program correctness. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: - Upgrade to upstream version 2.23 - Move execstack fixing to spec file from patch - Moved patch descriptions to initial patch declaration as in examples in Fedora documentation - New Caduceus, Krakatoa documentation - Update test result from small test min.mlw - Added CVC3 interfacing capabilities - Removed patch for gwhy configuration, as there is a new mechanism for this -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Jan 8 2010 Alan Dunn <[email protected]> - 2.23-1 - Upgrade to upstream version 2.23 - Move execstack fixing to spec file from patch - Moved patch descriptions to initial patch declaration as in examples in Fedora documentation - New Caduceus, Krakatoa documentation - Update test result from small test min.mlw - Added CVC3 interfacing capabilities - Removed patch for gwhy configuration, as there is a new mechanism for this -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
