Calendar Grey September 19, 2017
Dist Fedora Esm H88
The Synfig security patch for Fedora 25 introduces essential corrections and updates aimed at improving both system reliability and security measures.
Many security fixes, bug fixes, and other changes from the previous version 6.9.3.0

Summary

Synfig is a powerful, industrial-strength vector-based 2D animation

software, designed from the ground-up for producing feature-film quality

animation with fewer people and resources. It is designed to be capable of

producing feature-film quality animation. It eliminates the need for

tweening, preventing the need to hand-draw each frame. Synfig features

spatial and temporal resolution independence (sharp and smoothat any

resolution or framerate), high dynamic range images, and a flexible plugin

system.

This package contains the command-line-based rendering backend.

Install synfigstudio package for GUI-based animation studio.

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.
