- a/etc-15.0-i586-14.txz
/etc/hosts: added IPv6 loopback addresses. - ap/hplip-3.20.6-i586-7.txz
Fixed desktop file to show category and icon properly.
Thanks to upnort and ArTourter. - d/git-2.30.1-i586-3.txz
Make sure the bash-completion file is installed in the proper location.
Thanks to Robby Workman. - n/network-scripts-15.0-noarch-13.txz
Well, apparently there was a newer branch of this than the one that was
sitting in my usual pending queue, so here it is. This also includes some
additional documentation on the new features. NOTE: In order to use SLAAC
to configure IPv6, you'll need to have USE_SLAAC[x]=“yes” for the interface
in rc.inet1.conf. This is to ensure that nobody is surprised to find their
machine fully exposed to the internet - better safe than sorry.
Thanks to Darren “Tadgy” Austin and Robby Workman. - n/wireless_tools-30.pre9-i586-4.txz
This package contains some updates to rc.wireless and rc.wireless.conf.
Thanks to Darren “Tadgy” Austin.

Make a symlink /sbin/rescan-scsi-bus → /usr/bin/rescan-scsi-bus.sh in case
anyone depends on the old path / name from the sysvinit-scripts package. - n/s-nail-14.9.21-i586-4.txz

It looks like rebuilding Firefox with Rust 1.50.0 causes it to crash on
HTML5 streams, so let's drop back to this build. 78.8.0 is coming soon
and hopefully it'll fix this.

Packages
Upgraded
- d/llvm-11.1.0-i586-1.txz
Shared library .so-version bump. - n/bind-9.16.12-i586-1.txz
This update fixes a security issue:
When tkey-gssapi-keytab or tkey-gssapi-credential was configured, a
specially crafted GSS-TSIG query could cause a buffer overflow in the
ISC implementation of SPNEGO (a protocol enabling negotiation of the
security mechanism to use for GSSAPI authentication). This flaw could
be exploited to crash named. Theoretically, it also enabled remote code
execution, but achieving the latter is very difficult in real-world
conditions.

https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2020-8625
(* Security fix *)
Rebuilt
- a/pkgtools-15.0-noarch-37.txz
installpkg: in –terse mode, fix formatting for the uncommon situation
where numfmt produces a 5 character output e.g. 1000K.
Thanks to Karl Magnus Kolstø. - kde/kdevelop-5.6.2-i586-3.txz
Recompiled against llvm-11.1.0. - l/qt5-5.15.2-i586-5.txz
Recompiled against llvm-11.1.0. - n/s-nail-14.9.21-i586-3.txz
The dotlock utility doesn't work with glibc-2.33 (another case where changes
to sandboxed functions are needed), but we really don't need it anyway so
just rebuild without it. Thanks to Paulo2. - x/mesa-20.3.4-i586-3.txz
Recompiled against llvm-11.1.0.

There's not much need for this as ssr is better maintained.
Mon Feb 15 19:23:44 UTC 2021
Here we go again… upgraded to glibc-2.33 and one last mass rebuild for
Slackware 15.0. The only packages upgraded in this batch are glibc and the
kernels - everything else is just a rebuild against the new glibc. Not
rebuilt in this batch: devs (best to just leave this alone), glibc-zoneinfo,
kernel-firmware, rust, linux-faqs, linux-howtos, aspell-en, mozilla-firefox,
mozilla-thunderbird, and seamonkey. There's a new Rust compiler but Firefox
and Thunderbird will need to be patched to use it, so we'll hold off on
those until they're ready for the new Rust either with patches or new
upstream releases. Until we have that and a few more scheduled upgrades I'm
not quite ready to call this beta yet, but you can call it 15.0-alpha1.![]()
Cheers!
