-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2025-e3a0780eb0 2025-02-10 01:21:24.194256+00:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : gap-pkg-guava Product : Fedora 41 Version : 3.20 Release : 1.fc41 URL : https://gap-packages.github.io/guava/ Summary : Computing with error-correcting codes Description : GUAVA is a package that implements coding theory algorithms in GAP. Codes can be created and manipulated and information about codes can be calculated. GUAVA consists of various files written in the GAP language, and an external program from J. S. Leon for dealing with automorphism groups of codes and isomorphism testing functions. Several algorithms that need the speed are integrated in the GAP kernel. The functions within GUAVA can be divided into four categories: - Construction of codes. GUAVA can construct non-linear, linear and cyclic codes over an arbitrary finite field. Examples are HadamardCode, ReedMullerCode, BestKnownLinearCode, QRCode and GoppaCode. - Manipulation of codes. These functions allow the user to transform one code into another or to construct a new code from two codes. Examples are PuncturedCode, DualCode, DirectProductCode and UUVCode. - Computation of information about codes. This information is stored in the code record. Examples are MinimumDistance, OuterDistribution, IsSelfDualCode and AutomorphismGroup. - Generation of bounds on linear codes. The table by Brouwer and Verhoeff (as it existed in the mid-1990s) is incorporated into GUAVA. For example, BoundsMinimumDistance. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Changes in version 3.20: Many changes to the manual were made. Accumulated anachronisms were revealed by manual/example test extraction via AutoDoc The C23 standard defines a bool type and that will shortly be the default for gcc. Adjusted old C code (which defined its own bool type). CoveringRadius() for codes over small non-binary fields was throwing an error. Fixed, but a more permanent solution is needed. (See issue #104) Many other minor fixes (also revealed by AutoDoc's extraction of tests from the manual examples). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Sat Feb 1 2025 Jerry James <loganjerry@xxxxxxxxx> - 3.20-1 - Version 3.20 - Drop upstreamed sonata and bool patches - Run more tests * Sat Feb 1 2025 Jerry James <loganjerry@xxxxxxxxx> - 3.19-5 - Avoid redefining bool for C23 compatibility * Tue Jan 14 2025 Jerry James <loganjerry@xxxxxxxxx> - 3.19-4 - Minor spec file cleanups -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #2343354 - gap-pkg-guava-3.20 is available https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2343354 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program. Use su -c 'dnf upgrade --advisory FEDORA-2025-e3a0780eb0' at the command line.
