Renamed to aaa_libraries. a/aaa_glibc-solibs-2.32-x86_64-2.txz: Added. This package has been renamed from glibc-solibs, which helps avoid trouble if someone upgrades using "upgradepkg --install-new */*.txz" by upgrading this package before aaa_libraries. Otherwise, if aaa_libraries is upgraded first any libraries in it that are linked against a newer version of glibc than the one installed on the system would refuse to load. a/aaa_libraries-15.0-x86_64-1.txz: Added. This package has been renamed from aaa_elflibs to insure that it will come after aaa_glibc-solibs when upgraded in alphabetical order. Upgraded: libcap.so.2.48, libelf-0.183.so, libglib-2.0.so.0.6600.6, libgmodule-2.0.so.0.6600.6, libgobject-2.0.so.0.6600.6, libgthread-2.0.so.0.6600.6. Added: libtirpc.so.3.0.0. a/btrfs-progs-5.10.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. a/glibc-solibs-2.32-x86_64-1.txz: Removed. Renamed to aaa_glibc-solibs. a/kernel-generic-5.10.14-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. a/kernel-huge-5.10.14-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. a/kernel-modules-5.10.14-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. ap/slackpkg-15.0-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded. These are some of the important changes (see the ChangeLog for more): Note that this slackpkg release contains a backwards-incompatible change to the blacklisting syntax (e.g. glibc ---> glibc-*). This changes the prior behavior of the blacklist function; previously, adding "glibc" to the blacklist would cause glibc, glibc-profile, glibc-zoneinfo, et al to be ignored by slackpkg. The new behavior is that *only* the glibc package is ignored. If you want to blacklist all packages whose names begin with glibc, you would need to add "glibc.*" to the blacklist now. Also note that any special characters, e.g. "+", will need to be escaped in the blacklist file. To blacklist entire package sets, a trailing slash is now required: e.g. kde/ Another backwards-incompatibility warning: check-updates will now return 1 if there are updates available - this will make it easier to use this feature with cron (thanks to Peter Hyman). Added support for Slackware-AArch64 (thanks to Stuart Winter). Added aaa_glibc-solibs and aaa_libraries to the "do these first" routine. Thanks to Robby Workman for the new slackpkg release! ap/soma-3.3.7-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded. Thanks to David Woodfall. ap/xorriso-1.5.4.pl02-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/help2man-1.48.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/kernel-headers-5.10.14-x86-1.txz: Upgraded. k/kernel-source-5.10.14-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded. l/elfutils-0.183-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. l/glibc-2.32-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. l/glibc-i18n-2.32-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. l/glibc-profile-2.32-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. l/lcms2-2.12-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. l/libburn-1.5.4-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. x/xf86-input-wacom-0.40.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. isolinux/initrd.img: Rebuilt. kernels/*: Upgraded. usb-and-pxe-installers/usbboot.img: Rebuilt.

| | | | | | | | | a/sysvinit-scripts-2.1-noarch-18.txz: Rebuilt. rc.cpufreq: for CPUs that use intel_pstate, default to the performance governor. The performance governor provides power savings while avoiding the ramp-up lag caused by using "ondemand", which defaults to "powersave" on these systems. Thanks to EdGr. d/bison-3.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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! :-)

Slackware 14.0 combines modern components, ease of use, and flexible configuration... our "KISS" philosophy demands it.
