-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2013-0838 2013-01-16 18:45:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : why Product : Fedora 18 Version : 2.31 Release : 6.fc18 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, CVC3, 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: Coq has been updated to version 8.4pl1. See http://coq.inria.fr/distrib/V8.4pl1/CHANGES for changes in this version. Alt-ergo has been updated to version 0.95. See http://alt-ergo.lri.fr/#download for changes in this version. All other components in this release have been rebuilt for the change in coq or alt-ergo version, but have not otherwise been altered. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Jan 14 2013 Jerry James <[email protected]> - 2.31-6 - Rebuild for alt-ergo 0.95 * Mon Jan 7 2013 Jerry James <[email protected]> - 2.31-5 - Rebuild for coq 8.4pl1 * Fri Oct 19 2012 Jerry James <[email protected]> - 2.31-4 - Rebuild for OCaml 4.00.1 and frama-c Oxygen - Recripple the Jessie plugin until it works with frama-c Oxygen -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
