fixing_doc_build.patch fixing the build of the doc by skipping the Russian part, including the shared libs in the modules in java.library.path and also loading

populating_java_options_by_default.patch initiating _JAVA_OPTIONS so that we can start scilab with OpenJDK 17 on Debian, and also we provide the necessary java.library.path. Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> not-needed debian 2023-03-11
libjogl2-java-2.4.0.patch changing the name of the JNI library shipped in libjogl2-jni, which changed in libjogl2-java/2.4.0+dfsg. Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> not-needed 2023-04-22

pcre3_to_pcre2.patch switching from pcre3 to pcre2 This consists in:
1. making changes in the following files:
- scilab/modules/spreadsheet/src/c/csvRead.c
- scilab/modules/string/src/c/strsubst.c
- scilab/modules/string/sci_gateway/cpp/sci_strsubst.cpp
- scilab/modules/string/sci_gateway/cpp/sci_grep.cpp
- scilab/modules/string/sci_gateway/cpp/sci_strindex.cpp
- scilab/modules/string/sci_gateway/cpp/sci_regexp.cpp
- scilab/modules/slint/includes/PCREException.hxx
- scilab/modules/slint/includes/PCREMatcher.hxx
- scilab/modules/slint/src/cpp/PCREException.cpp
- scilab/modules/slint/src/cpp/PCREMatcher.cpp
in which one needs to use the pcre2 functions. This is somewhat difficult
because the upstream codes contains files like
scilab/modules/string/src/c/pcre_(internal|private).c which perform the regex
matches and are highly dependent on the contents of the pcre library. To
avoid rewriting them, I skipped them and put all the pattern compiling and
matching stuff in the above .(c|cpp|hxx) files.
.
2. creating the files
- scilab/modules/string/includes/handle_pcre2_pattern.h
- scilab/modules/string/src/c/handle_pcre2_pattern.c
which removes the delimiters of the regex patterns and stores the pattern
modifiers so that they are turned into options to be provided to
pcre2_compile.
.
3. updating the following files:
- scilab/m4/pcre.m4
- scilab/configure.ac
- scilab/modules/string/Makefile.am
- scilab/modules/slint/Makefile.am
so that the flags and libraries of pcre2 are used, not the ones of pcre3.		 Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> yes debian 2023-07-25
flags_for_hardening_and_debugging.patch altering build flags so that they are consistent with Debian practices for hardening and generating debug information Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> not-needed 2023-11-17
spelling.patch fixing various minor spelling mistakes Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> yes 2023-11-17
arch_specific_path_for_libs.patch adding the architecture-specific install dir of libraries to the path Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> not-needed 2023-11-19
libxml2-2.14.5.patch conforming to changes in libxml2/2.14.5 Some symbols have changed their location, adding includes to find them.
Also xmlSetStructuredErrorFunc in /usr/include/libxml2/libxml/xmlerror.h now
expects a second argument with const qualifier: changing
XMLDocument::errorXPathFunction accordingly.
The package should be upstreamed.		 Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> yes 2025-08-18
no_flexdock_version_check.patch skipping check of flexdock version in configure script Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> not-needed 2024-06-03
gcc14.patch building with gcc14, which mainly consists in casting pointers to add/remove the const qualifier Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> yes debian 2024-07-11
JFXScilabFileChooser.patch Drop macOS-only JFXScilabFileChooser Bastian Germann <bage@debian.org> not-needed 2024-09-13
ocaml-num_1.6.patch from ocaml-num/1.6, nums.cmxa is not shipped anymore and compilation has to be handled differently, see the page of the Debian bug. Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> yes debian 2025-08-18
gcc-15.patch building with gcc-15 by specifying accurate prototypes Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> not-needed debian upstream, https://gitlab.com/scilab/scilab/-/commit/e195f081b8a71957dd9f2be5e366876128e35369 2025-10-11
no_ezxml.patch removing embedded copies of ezxml, which has many security issues and is no more used by scilab anyway. Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> yes debian 2026-01-29
locales_utf8.patch using the UTF-8 suffix after the locale when building the documentation. Also skipping the attempt to launch scilab on regen_list.sce,
which can cause problems with the locales and cannot be run in a headless
environment anyway.

===================================================================		 Pierre Gruet <pgt@debian.org> yes debian 2026-01-29
java25-increase-entity-limit.patch Increase xml entity size limit Java 25 includes limits for the number of xml entitities
to prevent billion laughs attack.
