-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2017-033c8000df 2017-01-23 02:23:55.064300 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : why Product : Fedora 25 Version : 2.36 Release : 1.fc25 URL : http://why.lri.fr/ Summary : 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 "Frama-C"), 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, and Mizar are supported - having one is recommended and both Coq and PVS are packaged for Fedora) and automated theorem provers (without any extra work Simplify, Alt-Ergo, Yices, Z3, CVC3, and Zenon are supported and Alt-Ergo, Z3, and Zenon are packaged for Fedora) so that these results can be externally proven, resulting in a proof of program correctness. Note: Each user account must be set up by running "why-config" at the command line (to set up a configuration file). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Changes in coq 8.6: - See https://coq.inria.fr/distrib/V8.6/CHANGES Changes in why3 0.87.3: - fixed OCaml extraction with respect to ghost parameters - assorted bug fixes - support for Alt-Ergo 1.30 (released Nov 21, 2016) - support for Coq 8.6 (released Dec 8, 2016) - support for Gappa 1.3 (released Jul 20, 2016) - discarded support for Isabelle 2015 - support for Isabelle 2016-1 (released Dec 2016) - support for Z3 4.5.0 (released Nov 8, 2016) Changes in why 2.36: - [Frama-C plugin] Compatible with release Magnesium of Frama-C - compatibility with Why3 0.86.1 and above - new options to directly give the Why3 command to execute on the generated intermediate Why3 code: - [Krakatoa] option -why3 - [Jessie] option -why3cmd - [Frama-C plugin] option -jessie-why3 - [Frama-C plugin] options -jessie-timelimit, -jessie-atp discarded All other packages are rebuilds due to the new version of coq. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1330098 - FTBFS: segmentation fault during build https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1330098 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program. Use su -c 'dnf upgrade why' at the command line. For more information, refer to the dnf documentation available at http://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command_ref.html#upgrade-command-label All packages are signed with the Fedora Project GPG key.
