Slackwarearm-14.1 ChangeLog (2013-02-18)
Mon Feb 18 20:38:09 UTC 2013
KDE has been upgraded to version 4.10.0. The 'kdeedu' packages are missing
because 'analitza' would not build on ARM. I will revisit this later. 'KWin'
also segfaults upon launching KDE as with the previous KDE versions, but seems to
cause no ill effects after closing the dialog box!
I've been keen to get the 'gcc-go' package built (it had been absent because it
required a minimum of glibc-2.16 on ARM), so glibc has been upgraded to
version 2.17. We've jumped the gun a little here since Slackware x86 hasn't yet
made this jump. However, the 2.17 components should more or less the same sources
that make it into the x86 tree in the near future.
The mini root filesystem for -current has also been updated.

Packages
Upgraded
- a/glibc-solibs-2.17-arm-1.tgz
You must be running at least Linux 3.4.11 before applying this update. - a/gpm-1.20.7-arm-1.tgz
This bumps the shared library version number, and will require
several other packages to be recompiled. This will be done after
there's been some time to test this in -current. Meanwhile, things
should continue to work normally with the old shared library in
the aaa_elflibs package. - l/glibc-2.17-arm-1.tgz
glibc now requires a *minimum* running version of Linux kernel 3.4.11. This
enables an upgrade from Slackware ARM 14.0. If you do not have at least Linux
3.4.11 running on your system, you should not apply this batch or any further
updates from slackwarearm-current until you have upgraded the kernel on your
system. - xap/pidgin-2.10.7-arm-1.tgz
This update fixes several security issues:
Remote MXit user could specify local file path.
MXit buffer overflow reading data from network.
Sametime crash with long user IDs.
Crash when receiving a UPnP response with abnormally long values.

(* Security fix *)
Rebuilt
- l/polkit-0.105-arm-4.tgz
Reverted a patch that set the members of the wheel group as the
authorized administrators. On Slackware, root is the administrator
and the wheel group is mostly unused. Thanks to Gérard Monpontet. - l/QScintilla-2.6.1-arm-4.tgz
Recompiled against the new sip to fix API incompatibilities.
Thanks to ecoslacker and alienBOB.
