Name : python3.13
Product : Fedora 39
Version : 3.13.0~rc1
Release : 2.fc39
URL : https://www.python.org/
Summary : Version 3.13 of the Python interpreter
Description :
Python 3.13 is an accessible, high-level, dynamically typed, interpreted
programming language, designed with an emphasis on code readability.
It includes an extensive standard library, and has a vast ecosystem of
third-party libraries.

The python3.13 package provides the "python3.13" executable: the reference
interpreter for the Python language, version 3.
The majority of its standard library is provided in the python3.13-libs package,
which should be installed automatically along with python3.13.
The remaining parts of the Python standard library are broken out into the
python3.13-tkinter and python3.13-test packages, which may need to be installed
separately.

Documentation for Python is provided in the python3.13-docs package.

Packages containing additional libraries for Python are generally named with
the "python3.13-" prefix.

[SECURITY] Fedora 39 Update: tor-0.4.8.12-2.fc39


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2024-c2da7f4de7
2024-08-16 01:20:41.301445
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name : tor
Product : Fedora 39
Version : 0.4.8.12
Release : 2.fc39
URL : https://www.torproject.org
Summary : Anonymizing overlay network for TCP
Description :
The Tor network is a group of volunteer-operated servers that allows people to
improve their privacy and security on the Internet. Tor's users employ this
network by connecting through a series of virtual tunnels rather than making a
direct connection, thus allowing both organizations and individuals to share
information over public networks without compromising their privacy. Along the
same line, Tor is an effective censorship circumvention tool, allowing its
users to reach otherwise blocked destinations or content. Tor can also be used
as a building block for software developers to create new communication tools
with built-in privacy features.

This package contains the Tor software that can act as either a server on the
Tor network, or as a client to connect to the Tor network.
