Name : boinc-client
Product : Fedora 7
Version : 5.10.45
Release : 6.20080315svn.fc7
URL : http://boinc.berkeley.edu/
Summary : The BOINC client core
Description :
The Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) is an open-
source software platform which supports distributed computing, primarily in
the form of "volunteer" computing and "desktop Grid" computing. It is well
suited for problems which are often described as "trivially parallel". BOINC
is the underlying software used by projects such as SETI@home, Einstein@Home,
ClimatePrediciton.net, the World Community Grid, and many other distributed
computing projects.
This package installs the BOINC client software, which will allow your
computer to participate in one or more BOINC projects, using your spare
computer time to search for cures for diseases, model protein folding, study
global warming, discover sources of gravitational waves, and many other types
of scientific and mathematical research.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Fixes i386 build which has to be built as i686-pc-linux-gnu, otherwise boinc
will reject work on i386. Adds bash-completion script.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This update can be installed with the "yum" update program. Use
su -c 'yum update boinc-client' at the command line.
For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum",
available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/.

Name : comix
Product : Fedora 7
Version : 3.6.4
Release : 6.fc7
URL : http://comix.sourceforge.net/
Summary : A user-friendly, customizable image viewer
Description :
Comix is a user-friendly, customizable image viewer.
It is specifically designed to handle comic books, but
also serves as a generic viewer. It reads images in ZIP,
RAR or tar archives (also gzip or bzip2 compressed) as
well as plain image files. It is written in Python and
uses GTK+ through the PyGTK bindings.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Several security flaws are reported against comix 3.6.4. One issue is that
comix uses os.popen() to execute external commands without handling filenames
properly. This may allow malicios users to execute arbitrary commands by opening
some files with crafted names. This issue is now identified as CVE-2008-1568.
Another issue is that comix creates a directory under /tmp with the name easily
predictable by any users. This will cause DOS attach for multiuser system.
This new package will fix these issues.

Name : cloudy
Product : Fedora 7
Version : 07.02.01
Release : 3.fc7
URL : http://www.nublado.org/
Summary : Spectral synthesis code to simulate conditions in interstellar matter
Description :
Most of the quantitative information we have about the cosmos comes from
spectroscopy. In many cases the light we analyze was produced by atoms in
the first generations of stars and galaxies. The spectra are produced by
dilute gas where such properties as the gas kinetic temperature, chemical
state, level of ionization, and level populations, are determined by a
host of microphysical processes rather than by a single temperature.
Analytical solutions are seldom possible and computer solutions are
needed to understand their physical properties. Numerical simulations make
it possible to understand complex physical environments starting from
first principles. Cloudy is designed to do exactly this.
