+a/kernel-firmware-20210315_3568f96-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded.
+ap/sudo-1.9.6-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
+d/cmake-3.19.7-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
+d/python-setuptools-54.1.2-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
+d/rust-1.50.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
+l/libcap-2.49-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
+l/python-urllib3-1.26.4-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
+l/qt5-5.15.2-x86_64-6.txz: Rebuilt.
+ Rebuilt with -proprietary-codecs and -webengine-proprietary-codecs. When
+ combined with -webengine-ffmpeg (use system ffmpeg), this doesn't actually
+ build any proprietary codecs, but allows them to be used if they happen to
+ be built into the system ffmpeg. Thanks to alienBOB.
+xap/mozilla-firefox-86.0.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
+ When we first moved Slackware to the Firefox ESR channel, the motivation
+ was to keep Firefox secure while delaying a requirement for Rust at build
+ time. Of course, eventually that ESR version reached EOL and we had to
+ introduce Rust into Slackware 14.2 in order to continue providing updates.
+ Eventually that also ran into roadblocks as Firefox required first newer
+ C/C++ compilers, and then finally a newer libstdc++. To continue, we'd
+ have had to bump GCC to a much newer version, making other maintenance
+ difficult or impossible. At this point, the latest Firefox has no additional
+ dependencies beyond those of the ESR version, and it's unlikely that it
+ will be any more difficult to keep it maintained. I think we all want the
+ Slackware 15.0 release to be as good as possible, and most users will be
+ better served if we resume following the latest desktop releases.
+ Thanks to LuckyCyborg who can always be counted on to give me a friendly
+ kick in the rear end. :-) Thanks also to ponce for the updated gkrust patch.
