Description: Why is a software verification platform that applies formal proving
tools to annotated programs. It is currently capable of analysis of C
(through the included tool "Caduceus"), Java (through the included
tool "Krakatoa"), and ML programs, but in theory is capable of
analysis of any program that is mapped onto its own internal
language. It uses a weakest precondition involving calculus to
generate potential theorems necessary for the proof of a program's
correctness. It translates these theorems into formats that can be
used by external proof assistants (without any extra work, Coq, PVS,
HOL Light, Mizar are supported - having one is recommended) and
automated theorem provers so that these results can be externally
proven, resulting in a proof of program correctness.

Current packaging notes:

- Builds on i386
- Builds in mock
- rpmlint silent
- Meets Fedora packaging criteria (to the best of my knowledge - went through the list)
