flex 2.5.35-10ubuntu2 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

flex (2.5.35-10ubuntu2) precise; urgency=low

  * Split the flex package into flex and libfl-dev, with flex as a
    Multi-Arch: foreign package depending on a Multi-Arch: same libfl-dev,
    so that flex works for cross-building.  Thanks to
    Riku Voipio <email address hidden> for the initial version of this patch.
    Closes: #611230, LP: #873015.

flex: A fast lexical analyzer generator.

 Flex is a tool for generating scanners: programs which recognized lexical
 patterns in text. It reads the given input files for a description of a
 scanner to generate. The description is in the form of pairs of regular
 expressions and C code, called rules. Flex generates as output a C source
 file, lex.yy.c, which defines a routine yylex(). This file is compiled
 and linked with the -lfl library to produce an executable. When the
 executable is run, it analyzes its input for occurrences of the regular
 expressions. Whenever it finds one, it executes the corresponding C code.
