a/bash-3.1.017-i486-2.tgz: Reverted back to bash-3.1.017 (recompiled).
bash-3.2 was moved into /testing. Please see below for the full rationale.

• a/cups-1.2.11-i486-1.tgz
  Only link against OpenSSL, not GnuTLS (as this doesn't add any useful new
  functionality, only new dependencies). Thanks to Iain Paton for the report.
  Install any new rc.cups (or rc.cups.new) with the same perms as the old one.
  a/mkinitrd-1.1.2-i486-1.tgz: Fixed a bug where modules in the initrd were not
  being replaced with the newer versions in /lib/modules/$(uname -r) if they
  existed on the initrd already. Changed the load_kernel_modules script to
  use $(uname -r) when loading modules so that the same initrd can be used
  with many different kernels. Now, -k and -m can be used to add additional
  modules to an initrd without disturbing existing ones.

• ap/linuxdoc-tools-0.9.21-i486-4.tgz
  Upgraded to docbook-4.5 and gtk-doc-1.8.
  Thanks to Stuart Winter for improving Jerome Pinot's original build scripts
  to build from as many original sources as possible, and adding new features.
  l/aspell-0.60.5-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled against libncursesw to enable utf8.
  Thanks to Tomas Szepe for letting me know aspell was missing utf8 support,
  and about the missing link (see directly below).

• l/ncurses-5.6-i486-2.tgz
  symlink. Thanks to Tomas Szepe for the bug report.

• n/epic4-2.6-i486-1.tgz
  n/fetchmail-6.3.8-i486-2.tgz: Fetchmail installed a sample script in the docs
  world-writable. Fixed. Thanks to Piter Punk.

• n/gnupg2-2.0.4-i486-1.tgz
  n/iputils-s20070202-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled.
  The iputils SGML → man pages will build now.
  n/network-scripts-11.1-noarch-2.tgz: Merged fixes from Eric Hameleers.
  Reduced the default DCHP timeout from 60 to 30 seconds. Added an example
  of IP aliasing setup to /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf.new.
  n/wireless-tools-28-i486-4.tgz: Applied Eric Hameleers' patch to rc.wireless.
  x/xorg-server-1.3.0.0-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled with a patch found on
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9758 by Iain Paton, which
  should fix the issues with X ignoring dpi settings.
  x/xorg-server-xdmx-1.3.0.0-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled.
  x/xorg-server-xnest-1.3.0.0-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled.
  x/xorg-server-xvfb-1.3.0.0-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled.

• xap/audacious-plugins-1.3.4-i486-1.tgz
  xap/pidgin-2.0.0-i486-2.tgz: Here's a little excerpt from:
  http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/WhyPackagesExist
  “We have no developers using Slack, and furthermore, several of us actively
  dislike that distribution for its history of broken installs, as well as
  for its non-existant package management. You cannot create true packages
  for Slack.”
  Well, I'm somewhat shocked by this, having never (to my knowledge) done
  anything to any of the former GAIM or Pidgin developers to make them mad at
  me, Slackware, or anyone on the Slackware team. I guess if they feel it's
  not possible to make a “true” Pidgin package for Slackware, there's no point
  in continuing to try. Having put out 7 security advisories on GAIM, I'm
  quite sure there will be less work here if Pidgin is not included.
  The Pidgin package has been moved to the “unsupported” directory. For the
  record, I do not actively dislike Pidgin or any of their developers, but I
  do plan to use Kopete from now on.
  xap/xpaint-2.7.8.1-i486-2.tgz: Moved man page to the correct location.
  Thanks to Dan Church for the bug report.

• extra/linux-2.6.21.1-nosmp-sdk
  convert from the default SMP Linux source configuration to the non-SMP one.
  If you are running a non-SMP kernel, once you run the script in this
  directory you will be able to easily install software that involves
  compiling kernel modules (such as the binary nVidia drivers).

• extra/parted/parted-1.8.7-i486-1.tgz
  isolinux/pcmcia.dsk: Updated by Eric Hameleers.

• testing/packages/bash-3.2.017-i486-1.tgz
  Moved here from slackware/a. Honestly, I think /testing may be a better
  place for bash-3.2 for a while longer – it's causing trouble with many old
  scripts. So, we'll give it a while longer to stabilize and for scripts to
  catch up to any syntax changes which may have occurred. The fix for 99.9%
  of these old scripts is to not use the deprecated `command` syntax and
  instead use the $(command) syntax.
  usb-and-pxe-installers/: Updated USB and PXE installers.
  Thanks to Eric Hameleers.
