| | | | | | | | | | | a/usb_modeswitch-2.5.2-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Seems there's a regression in usb_modeswitch-2.6.0, so let's revert to usb_modeswitch-2.5.2 but keep the latest usb-modeswitch-data-20191128. Thanks to Lockywolf. l/fuse3-3.9.0-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Install fuse.conf as fuse.conf.new. This won't prevent an existing config file from being overwritten with this upgrade, but it will prevent that from happening again moving forward. Thanks to chrisVV.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thu Jun 30 20:26:57 UTC 2016 Slackware 14.2 x86_64 stable is released! The long development cycle (the Linux community has lately been living in "interesting times", as they say) is finally behind us, and we're proud to announce the release of Slackware 14.2. The new release brings many updates and modern tools, has switched from udev to eudev (no systemd), and adds well over a hundred new packages to the system. Thanks to the team, the upstream developers, the dedicated Slackware community, and everyone else who pitched in to help make this release a reality. The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided 32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. Please consider supporting the Slackware project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com. We're taking pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription. Have fun! :-)

The ISOs are off to the replicator. This time it will be a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided 32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. We're taking pre-orders now at store.slackware.com. Please consider picking up a copy to help support the project. Once again, thanks to the entire Slackware community for all the help testing and fixing things and offering suggestions during this development cycle. As always, have fun and enjoy! -P.
