I've made a new version of flex available for downloading.  This updates
the package to the latest version available from sourceforge.  This update
corrects the missing m4 dependency in the 64-bit version of flex.  Thanks
to Роман Донченко for the heads up about that.

The flex program generates scanners.  Scanners are programs which can
recognize lexical patterns in text.  Flex takes pairs of regular
expressions and C code as input and generates a C source file as output.
The output file is compiled and linked with a library to produce an
executable.  The executable searches through its input for occurrences
of the regular expressions.  When a match is found, it executes the
corresponding C code.  Flex was designed to work with both Yacc and
Bison, and is used by many programs as part of their build process.

Flex is available in tne "Devel" category.

Below are the NEWS entries since the last release of flex.
