Here are the slackware-current changelog updates:

Tue May 27 22:12:01 CDT 2008
a/mkinitrd-1.3.2-i486-3.tgz: Initialize RAID earlier so that the combination
of RAID+LUKS+LVM works. Thanks to Eric Hameleers.
xap/rdesktop-1.6.0-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to rdesktop-1.6.0.
According to the rdesktop ChangeLog, this contains a:
“* Fix for potential vulnerability against compromised/malicious servers
(reported by iDefense)”
This package build also includes the new alsa driver (–with-sound=alsa),
though I couldn’t get local sound redirection. Perhaps it was just my
command line error though, so the driver remains included for testing.

(* Security fix *)
extra/ktorrent/ktorrent-2.2.7-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to ktorrent-2.2.7.
