./math/bc, Arbitrary precision calculator language

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.08.2, Package name: bc-1.08.2, Maintainer: reed

Bc is an arbitrary precision calculator language. Syntax is similar
to C, but differs in many substantial areas. It supports interactive
execution of statements

It can also be used as a simple console-based calculator.

This GNU version of bc contains several extensions beyond traditional
bc implementations and the POSIX draft standard.

This package also includes dc, another arbitrary precision calculator.
Dc is a reverse-polish desk calculator which supports unlimited
precision arithmetic. It also allows you to define and call macros.

Remove last vestages of K&R C; this allows gcc-15+ to compile the
  code without special options.
Plug a small memory leak in dc.
Some typo and formatting fixes in the documentation.

Log message:
math/bc: fix error: flex not a runtime dependency check

libfl is linked in when readline is used as readline
implementation and flex is only required then so make
sure it is used as flex:run in such case.

Log message:
all: migrate several HOMEPAGEs to https

pkglint --only "https instead of http" -r -F

With manual adjustments afterwards since pkglint 19.4.4 fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines.

This mainly affects projects hosted at SourceForce, as well as
freedesktop.org, CTAN and GNU.
