Name        : pcre
Product     : Fedora 21
Version     : 8.35
Release     : 10.fc21
URL         : http://www.pcre.org/
Summary     : Perl-compatible regular expression library
Description :
Perl-compatible regular expression library.
PCRE has its own native API, but a set of "wrapper" functions that are based on
the POSIX API are also supplied in the library libpcreposix. Note that this
just provides a POSIX calling interface to PCRE: the regular expressions
themselves still follow Perl syntax and semantics. The header file
for the POSIX-style functions is called pcreposix.h.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This release fixes pkg-config module output for static linking. It also provides pcredemo.c example in pcre-devel documentation.
This release fixes various bugs when compiling regular expressions or matching them which could lead to a process crash. Also infinite loop in pcretest(1) and pcregrep(1) tools when using \K in a lookbehind assertion was fixed.
