Name        : pcre
Product     : Fedora 23
Version     : 8.38
Release     : 1.fc23
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 various bugs when compiling or matching expressions. It also
fixes how pcregrep handles binary files.  It also fixes a heap-based buffer
overflow in pcre_exec() when ovector has size 1 (bug #1285415)
