How To Install symfpu on Fedora 36

In this tutorial we learn how to install symfpu in Fedora 36. symfpu is An implementation of IEEE-754 / SMT-LIB floating-point

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install symfpu on Fedora 36.

What is symfpu

SymFPU is an implementation of the SMT-LIB / IEEE-754 operations in terms of bit-vector operations. It is templated in terms of the bit-vectors, propositions, floating-point formats and rounding mode types used. This allow the same code to be executed as an arbitrary precision “SoftFloat” library (although it’s performance would not be good) or to be used to build symbolic representation of floating-point operations suitable for use in “bit-blasting” SMT solvers (you could also generate circuits from them but again, performance will likely not be good).

We can use yum or dnf to install symfpu on Fedora 36. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install symfpu.

Install symfpu on Fedora 36 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

After updating yum database, We can install symfpu using dnf by running the following command:

sudo dnf -y install symfpu

Install symfpu on Fedora 36 Using yum

Update yum database with yum using the following command.

sudo yum makecache --refresh

After updating yum database, We can install symfpu using yum by running the following command:

sudo yum -y install symfpu

How To Uninstall symfpu on Fedora 36

To uninstall only the symfpu package we can use the following command:

sudo dnf remove symfpu
