fedora
Calendar Grey August 8, 2018
Dist Fedora Esm H88
The latest vim-syntastic patch for Fedora 27 resolves significant security flaws in code execution that were identified in this update.
new upstream release v3.9.0

Summary

Syntastic is a syntax checking plugin that runs files through external syntax

checkers and displays any resulting errors to the user. This can be done on

demand, or automatically as files are saved. If syntax errors are detected, the

user is notified and is happy because they didn't have to compile their code or

execute their script to find them.
