Fri Mar 28 23:35:22 CDT 2008
a/aaa_base-12.1.0-noarch-1.tgz: Added an empty /usr/share/wallpapers as this
seems to be a de-facto standard directory and (for example) XFce will give
an error if it is missing and one tries to change the desktop image.
Thanks to Chess Griffin for reporting this.
Bumped version number of package, and of /etc/slackware-version.
a/etc-12.1-noarch-3.tgz: Installed root into the audio, cdrom, video, plugdev,
and floppy groups _correctly_. This was noticed by a lot of people — sorry
for the bogus entries in there before. I don’t know how I managed that.
(easily a/lilo-22.8-i486-10.tgz: Fixed liloconfig to at least create an empty
message file in /boot if none exists.

x/pixman-0.10.0-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to pixman-0.10.0.
xap/mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.13-i686-1.tgz:
Upgraded to firefox-2.0.0.13.
This upgrade fixes some more security bugs.
For more information, see:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabilities.html#firefox
(* Security fix *)
xap/seamonkey-1.1.9-i486-1.tgz:

For more information, see:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabilities.html#seamonkey
(* Security fix *)
xap/xine-lib-1.1.11-i686-1.tgz: Earlier versions of xine-lib suffer from an
array index bug that may have security implications if a malicious RTSP
stream is played. Playback of other media formats is not affected.
If you use RTSP, you should probably upgrade xine-lib.
For more information on the security issue, please see:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-0073
(* Security fix *)
xap/vim-gvim-7.1.285-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to vim-7.1.285. This is the GTK+
version of vim (gvim). The normal vim package is also required.
extra/grub/grub-0.97-i486-6.tgz: Restored the inode patch for ext2/3.
It looks like it was needed after all.
extra/linux-2.6.24.3-nosmp-sdk/: Updated SMP to no-SMP kernel source patch.
isolinux/initrd.img: Fixed huge.s kernel installation bug.
kernels/huge.s/*: Upgraded huge.s kernel to 2.6.24.4.
kernels/hugesmp.s/*: Upgraded hugesmp.s kernel to 2.6.24.4 (SMP).
kernels/speakup.s/*: Upgraded speakup.s kernel to 2.6.24.4.
pasture/gcc-3.4.6/: Removed, since this has gone unchanged since
Slackware 12.0. I’m not sure if the one in 12.0’s pasture still works,
but if it does, and you need it for something, that’s where to find it.
usb-and-pxe-installers/: Updated USB and PXE installers to 2.6.24.4 modules.

Here are the slackware-current changelog updates:

Wed Mar 26 00:21:34 CDT 2008
a/etc-12.1-noarch-2.tgz: Add root to the groups audio, cdrom, video, plugdev,
and floppy. Root already has access to most of these devices, but it doesn’t
hurt to provide an example for people who edit /etc/groups manually.
a/shadow-4.0.3-i486-15.tgz: Took plugdev out of CONSOLE_GROUPS in
/etc/login.defs, since DBUS doesn’t know about group memberships added that
way. Users not actually listed in /etc/groups as part of groups such as
plugdev wouldn’t be able to use those devices even at the console when
logging in through a graphical login manager such as XDM, KDM, or GDM.
Stuart Winter enhanced the command-line adduser tool. Quote from the adduser
program history: “* To facilitate use of the automatic mounting features of
HAL, allow the admin to easily add users to the default groups:
audio,cdrom,video,plugdev,floppy
The default is not to add new users to these groups. And by the way, this
script is “adduser from Slackware” not “superadduser from Gentoo” ;-)”
If you trust your users, this is the correct way to give them access to these
devices. adduser will automatically edit /etc/groups for you. If you do not
trust your users and you give them access to these groups, they may create
mischief from afar with this access, so be aware of the security implications.
a/udev-118-i486-3.tgz: Fixed two broken symbolic links in /sbin.
Thanks to Piter Punk for fixing the script, and to Fred Emmott for noticing
the problem and letting us know.
ap/ntfsprogs-2.0.0-i486-2.tgz: Added back ntfsprogs-2.0.0, using (for now)
–disable-ntfsmount. It is still needed to manage NTFS partitions even if we
use the kernel driver or NTFS-3G to mount them.
Thanks to Matteo Nunziati for the information.
n/epic4-2.8-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to epic4-2.8.
n/irssi-0.8.12-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to irssi-0.8.12.
n/nmap-4.60-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to nmap-4.60.
Zenmap still isn’t working because we don’t include sqlite, but a zenmap
.desktop file was added anyway, and some paths in a script were fixed.
Thanks to Mauro Ghisoni for pointing out the bad paths in Paths.py.
xap/gimp-2.4.5-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to gimp-2.4.5, added support for pyGTK.
isolinux/initrd.img: Fixed Speakup kernel detection.
Thanks to Jude DaShiell for reporting the bug.
Added LVM swap partition detection.
Thanks to Manuel Reimer for the patch.
usb-and-pxe-installers/: Fixed Speakup kernel detection.
Thanks to Jude DaShiell for reporting the bug.
Added LVM swap partition detection.
Thanks to Manuel Reimer for the patch.

Here are the slackware-current changelog updates:

Sat Mar 22 16:26:33 CDT 2008
a/pkgtools-12.1.0-noarch-6.tgz: Fixed bogus bad gzipped file warnings.
ap/ghostscript-8.62-i486-3.tgz: Fixed default cidfmap installation.
n/mcabber-0.9.6-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to mcabber-0.9.6.
xap/audacious-1.5.0-i486-2.tgz: Don’t use opcodes that break older computers.
Thanks to Elvio Basello and Udo A. Steinberg for the bug reports.
Thanks also to Giacomo Lozito for debugging suggestions. The problem was,
of course, on my side of things. xap/audacious-plugins-1.5.0-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled.

Here are the slackware-current changelog updates:

Wed Mar 19 19:34:38 CDT 2008
Is this Slackware 12.1 RC 1 yet? It has to be close.
a/e2fsprogs-1.40.8-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to e2fsprogs-1.40.8.
a/gpm-1.20.1-i486-5.tgz: Default item to imps2, which works well with KVM
boxes. If you use a Synaptics pad with the third party driver, you may have
to change this setting.
a/inotify-tools-3.13-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to inotify-tools-3.13.
a/kernel-generic-2.6.24.3-i486-2.tgz: After much debate, the kernels have been
recompiled with the CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN option enabled. This was tried once
and caused problems for real SCSI systems, but that really was many years ago
and it’s so handy to have this feature for multi-LUN card readers that we’re
going to try enabling this again. Please report any problems.
Upgraded to Linux 2.6.24.3 uniprocessor generic.s (requires initrd) kernel.
a/kernel-generic-smp-2.6.24.3_smp-i686-2.tgz:
Recompiled with CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN.
a/kernel-huge-2.6.24.3-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled with CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN.
a/kernel-huge-smp-2.6.24.3_smp-i686-2.tgz:
Recompiled with CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN.
a/kernel-modules-2.6.24.3-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled.
a/kernel-modules-smp-2.6.24.3_smp-i686-2.tgz: Recompiled.
a/ntfs-3g-1.2310-i486-1.tgz: After getting a lot of feedback on it, we’re
changing from ntfsprogs to ntfs-3g and putting it in the A series so that it
can be used as the default NTFS filesystem. All the best wishes to the
ntfsprogs project for future improvement, but nftsprogs couldn’t extract and
compile the Linux kernel on an NTFS partition here, and ntfs-3g could.
It also seems to have a better community and support going right now.
Thanks to the users who wrote with their opinions to help make this decision.
a/pkgtools-12.1.0-noarch-5.tgz: Default making a USB boot stick to off.
a/sysvinit-scripts-1.2-noarch-18.tgz: Removed /etc/rc.d/rc.scanluns.
a/udev-118-i486-2.tgz: Blacklist old bcm43xx driver (b43 and b43legacy are
the recommended drivers now).
ap/alsa-utils-1.0.15-i486-2.tgz: Set reasonable volume defaults if there are
none in /etc/asound.state. Thanks to Eric Hameleers.
ap/gutenprint-5.0.2-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to gutenprint-5.0.2.
ap/ntfsprogs-2.0.0-i486-1.tgz: Removed (for now).
d/m4-1.4.10-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to m4-1.4.10. Thanks to Kyle Guinn for
reporting that m4-1.4.9 had a serious calculation bug.
d/pkg-config-0.23-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to pkg-config-0.23.
k/kernel-source-2.6.24.3_smp-noarch-2.tgz: CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN is now the
default in the supplied Slackware generic .config.
kde/kdelibs-3.5.9-i486-3.tgz: Patched a problem with Kate mislocating the
cursor after a block paste. Thanks to Peter Sevens for showing me the fix.
l/atk-1.22.0-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to atk-1.22.0.
l/dbus-1.1.20-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to dbus-1.1.20. Thanks to Robby Workman
for helping to maintain the dbus build scripts.
l/dbus-glib-0.74-i486-2.tgz: Rebuilt.
l/dbus-qt3-0.70-i486-2.tgz: Rebuilt.
l/gnome-icon-theme-2.22.0-noarch-1.tgz: Upgraded to gnome-icon-theme-2.22.0.
l/glib2-2.14.6-i486-3.tgz: Set G_BROKEN_FILENAMES=1, and if the locale is
UTF-8, then set G_FILENAME_ENCODING=”@locale” (which will override the
G_BROKEN_FILENAMES setting). This should get us a little closer with UTF.
Thanks to Dave Minton for pointing out the issue to Robby Workman, who
(in turn), sent it in to me.
l/gtk+2-2.12.9-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to gtk+-2.12.9.
l/hal-info-20080313-noarch-1.tgz: Upgraded to l/hal-info-20080313.

l/wavpack-4.41.0-i486-1.tgz: Added wavpack-4.41.0.

I have started to post up some packages that I made for Slackware 12.0 of some things that I didn’t see on LinuxPackages. If you want to see them then please feel free to go to my personal site for them. You can get to confiscatedThoughts to check them out. Also, if you have any request for packages that you can’t seem to find then please feel free to ask and I will do my best to create them for you.
