fedora
Calendar Grey September 19, 2017
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora 26 delivers a crucial security patch for r, remedying issues from the last release with improvements and modifications.
Many security fixes, bug fixes, and other changes from the previous version 6.9.3.0

Summary

Q is a powerful and extensible functional programming language based

on the term rewriting calculus. You specify an arbitrary system of

equations which the interpreter uses as rewrite rules to reduce

expressions to normal form. Q is useful for scientific programming and

other advanced applications, and also as a sophisticated kind of

desktop calculator. The distribution includes the Q programming tools,

a standard library, add-on modules for interfacing to Curl, GNU dbm,

ODBC, GNU Octave, ImageMagick, Tcl/Tk, XML/XSLT and an Emacs mode.

Many security fixes, bug fixes, and other changes from the previous version

6.9.3.0. See the [6.9 branch ChangeLog](https://github.com/ImageMagick/ImageMagick/blob/3fd358e2ac34977fda38a2cf4d88a1cb4dd2d7c7/ChangeLog). Dependent packages

are mostly straight rebuilds, a couple also include bugfix version updates.
