Name        : malaga
Product     : Fedora 11
Version     : 7.12
Release     : 4.fc11
URL         : http://home.arcor.de/bjoern-beutel/malaga/
Summary     : A programming language for automatic language analysis
Description :
A software package for the development and application of
grammars that are used for the analysis of words and sentences of natural
languages. It is a language-independent system that offers a programming
language for the modelling of the language-dependent grammatical
information. This language is also called Malaga.

Malaga is based on the grammatical theory of the "Left Associative Grammar"
(LAG), developed by Roland Hausser, professor for Computational Linguistics at
University of Erlangen, Germany.

Update Information:

The libmalaga library had symbol conflicts with the map_file and unmap_file
functions found also in the Samba libraries. When the evolution-mapi package and
the enchant-voikko package were both installed, this conflict caused a
segmentation fault (crash) in the Evolution e-mail client.    This update
renames the (un)map_file functions in libmalaga so that the symbol conflict
doesn't happen anymore, which fixes the Evolution crash.
