It should be bison: upwardly compatible with input files designed for yacc. bison: bison: bison: bison: bison: bison: bison: byacc: Berkeley Yacc is an LALR(1) parser generator. Berkeley Yacc byacc: has been made as compatible as possible with AT&T Yacc. Berkeley byacc: Yacc can accept any input specification that conforms to the AT&T byacc: Yacc documentation. Specifications that take advantage of byacc: undocumented features of AT&T Yacc will probably be rejected. byacc: byacc: If you skip this package and install GNU bison, a /usr/bin/yacc byacc: shell script will be created which will allow you to use bison byacc: instead. (It contains 'bison -y $*') byacc: byacc: egcs: The GNU C and C++ compilers (egcs-1.0.3). egcs: egcs: This package contains the GNU C and C++ compilers and libstdc++ from egcs: egcs-1.0.3. To compile, you'll also need (at least) these packages: egcs: binutils.tgz, gmake.tgz, libc.tgz, and linuxinc.tgz. These compilers egcs: are based on a gcc-2.8.0 snapshot with many fixes and enhancements egcs: by the egcs team. For more information, see the egcs home page: egcs: http://egcs.cygnus.com/ egcs: egcs: egcs is pronounced "eggs", the c is silent. egcs: egcs_g77: GNU Fortran-77 compiler from the egcs-1.0.3 release. egcs_g77: egcs_g77: This package contains the GNU Fortran-77 compiler from the egcs egcs_g77: release, based on g77-0.5.21. To use this compiler, you'll also egcs_g77: need to install the egcs.tgz C/C++ compiler package, binutils.tgz, egcs_g77: gmake.tgz, libc.tgz, and linuxinc.tgz. egcs_g77: egcs_g77: egcs_g77: egcs_g77: egcs_g77: egcsobjc: GNU Objective-C compiler from the egcs-1.0.3 release. egcsobjc: egcsobjc: This package contains the GNU Objective-C compiler from the egcs egcsobjc: release, based on a pre-gcc-2.8.0 snapshot with many enhancements. egcsobjc: To use this compiler, you'll also need to install the egcs.tgz C/C++ egcsobjc: compiler package, binutils.tgz, gmake.tgz, libc.tgz, and linuxinc.tgz. egcsobjc: egcsobjc: For more information on egcs, see http://egcs.cygnus.com/ egcsobjc: egcsobjc: egcsobjc: flex: flex - fast lexical analyzer generator version 2.5.4 flex: flex: flex is a tool for generating scanners: programs which recognize flex: lexical patterns in text. flex: flex: flex: flex: flex: flex: flex: gcl: GNU Common LISP 2.2.2 gcl: gcl: The GNU Common LISP system. The GCL system contains C and Lisp source gcl: files to build a Common Lisp system. The original KCL system was gcl: written by Taiichi Yuasa and Masami Hagiya in 1984. The AKCL system gcl: work was begun in 1987 by William Schelter and continued through 1994. gcl: In 1994 AKCL was released as GCL (GNU Common Lisp) under the GNU gcl: Public Library License. gcl: gcl: A number of people have contributed ports and pieces. gcl: gdb: The GNU debugger. (v. 4.17) gdb: gdb: You can use GDB to debug programs written in C, C++, and Modula-2. gdb: GDB now includes support for GNU Fortran 77. gdb: gdb: gdb: gdb: gdb: gdb: gdb: gmake: GNU make utility 3.76.1. gmake: gmake: This is the GNU implementation of make, which was written by Richard gmake: Stallman and Roland McGrath. The purpose of the make utility is to gmake: determine automatically which pieces of a large program need to be gmake: recompiled, and issue the commands to recompile them. gmake: gmake: This is needed to compile just about any major C program, including gmake: the Linux kernel. gmake: gmake: libc: Development libraries for the C compiler. libc: libc: These libraries are needed to compile C code in the ELF format. libc: libc: Includes the 5.4.46 Linux C libraries, libcurses 1.0.0, libc: GNU libgdbm 1.7.3, libtermcap 2.0.8, and BSD db 1.85.4. libc: libc: libc: libc: libc: libcinfo: C library documentation libcinfo: libcinfo: Info files for the GNU C library and GDBM library. libcinfo: libcinfo: libcinfo: libcinfo: libcinfo: libcinfo: libcinfo: libcinfo: linuxinc: Linux 2.0.34 kernel include files linuxinc: linuxinc: These are the include files from the 2.0.34 Linux kernel. You'll linuxinc: need these to compile most system software for Linux. These header linuxinc: files are matched to the current C library header files, so you might linuxinc: want to keep using these for your compiles even if you switch to a linuxinc: new Linux kernel. linuxinc: linuxinc: linuxinc: linuxinc: m4: GNU m4 1.4 m4: m4: This is release 1.4 of GNU m4, a program which copies its input to the m4: output, expanding macros as it goes. m4 has built-in functions for m4: including named files, running Unix commands, doing integer m4: arithmetic, manipulating text in various ways, recursion, etc... m4: Macros can also be user-defined, and can take any number of arguments. m4: GNU 'm4' has been originally written by Rene Seindal, from Denmark. m4: m4: m4: ncurses: A curses-compatible screen management library with color. (v. 1.9.9g) ncurses: ncurses: Documentation and sample programs are included. ncurses: ncurses: ncurses: ncurses: ncurses: ncurses: ncurses: ncurses: p2c: A Pascal to C translator. (v. 1.19) p2c: p2c: p2c: p2c: p2c: p2c: p2c: p2c: p2c: p2c: perl: Larry Wall's interpreted systems language. (v. 5.004_04) perl: perl: ELF dynamic loading is supported in this version. perl: perl: perl: perl: perl: perl: perl: perl: pmake: BSD 4.4 make. pmake: pmake: This may be required if you're going to port software with Makefiles pmake: designed for BSD. The binary is installed as /usr/bin/pmake. pmake: pmake: pmake: pmake: pmake: pmake: pmake: python: python-1.5. python: python: Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming python: language that combines remarkable power with very clear syntax. python: Python's basic power can be extended with your own modules written in python: C or C++. Python is also adaptable as an extension language for python: existing applications. python: python: python: python: rcs: GNU revision control system. (v. 5.7) rcs: rcs: RCS, the Revision Control System, manages multiple revisions of files. rcs: rcs: RCS can store, retrieve, log, identify, and merge revisions. It is rcs: useful for files that are revised frequently, e.g. programs, rcs: documentation, graphics, and papers. rcs: rcs: rcs: rcs: strace: strace-3.1.0.1 - traces system calls and signals. strace: strace: Strace allows you to trace the execution of a command. It runs the strace: specified command until it exits, intercepting signals and system strace: calls and dumping the information to the standard output. strace: strace: strace: strace: strace: strace: svgalib: Svgalib Super-VGA Graphics Library 1.2.13 svgalib: svgalib: A video hardware graphics library, based on VGAlib 1.2. Supports most svgalib: video graphics adaptors, at least in VGA modes. Contains additional svgalib: support for higher resolution modes with cards based on ALI2301, ARK svgalib: Logic ARK1000PV/2000PV, ATI SVGA, ATI Mach32, ATI Mach64, Chips and svgalib: Technologies, Cirrus Logic GD542x/3x, Genoa GVGA6400, Hercules svgalib: Stingray 64/Video, Oak Technologies OTI-037/67/77/87, S3, Trident TVGA svgalib: 8900C/9000/9440, Tseng ET4000/ET4000W32, and some other chipsets. svgalib: svgalib: terminfo: Complete /usr/share/terminfo database. terminfo: terminfo: This is the the master terminfo database maintained by Eric Raymond. terminfo: This database is the official descendant of the 4.4BSD termcap file, terminfo: and includes information about virtually every terminal known. The terminfo: ncurses libraries use this database to adjust screen output for the terminfo: terminal type in use. Unless you're allowing logins from terminal terminfo: types other than the Linux console, xterms, or vt100 terminals, you terminfo: probably won't need this database - a minimal /usr/share/terminfo with terminfo: support for those types is included in the ncurses package. terminfo:
