--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2006-839 2006-07-19 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 5 Name : flex Version : 2.5.4a Release : 41.fc5 Summary : A tool for creating scanners (text pattern recognizers). Description : The flex program generates scanners. Scanners are programs which can recognize lexical patterns in text. Flex takes pairs of regular expressions and C code as input and generates a C source file as output. The output file is compiled and linked with a library to produce an executable. The executable searches through its input for occurrences of the regular expressions. When a match is found, it executes the corresponding C code. Flex was designed to work with both Yacc and Bison, and is used by many programs as part of their build process. You should install flex if you are going to use your system for application development. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Tue Jul 18 2006 Petr Machata <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 2.5.4a-41 - reverted posix patch * Sun Jul 16 2006 Petr Machata <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 2.5.4a-40 - using dist tag * Fri Jul 14 2006 Petr Machata <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 2.5.4a-39 - fileno is defined in posix standard, so adding #define _POSIX_SOURCE to compile without warnings (#195687) - dropping 183098 test, since the original bug was already resolved * Fri Mar 10 2006 Petr Machata <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 2.5.4a-38 - Caught the real cause of #183098. It failed because the parser built with `flex -f' *sometimes* made it into the final package, and -f assumes seven-bit tables. Solution has two steps. Move `make bigcheck' to `%check' part, where it belongs anyway, so that flexes built during `make bigcheck' don't overwrite original build. And change makefile so that `make bigcheck' will *always* execute *all* check commands. --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/5/ 9bc8c23983c2bd258e8762c2257e9a58a2b207d8 SRPMS/flex-2.5.4a-41.fc5.src.rpm 9bc8c23983c2bd258e8762c2257e9a58a2b207d8 noarch/flex-2.5.4a-41.fc5.src.rpm b816c5a560a35db920c5be223ddb03ecabbfd863 ppc/debug/flex-debuginfo-2.5.4a-41.fc5.ppc.rpm dc07aa90ee68bbb47ac86f269e6454abe2e268dd ppc/flex-2.5.4a-41.fc5.ppc.rpm f8f214357fc0bd02faad42c559ad9a0c7415c04f x86_64/debug/flex-debuginfo-2.5.4a-41.fc5.x86_64.rpm 992890955202a0a496f5c6e70ca26acc03f83b86 x86_64/flex-2.5.4a-41.fc5.x86_64.rpm a661bf508310defd362c451fd74551c4be08d064 i386/debug/flex-debuginfo-2.5.4a-41.fc5.i386.rpm b72926afe1fc4e371ebf70df6729d24169f9436e i386/flex-2.5.4a-41.fc5.i386.rpm This update can be installed with the 'yum' update program.
