ffmpeg: rebuilt 6.1.1 against new libunistring (Slackware -current).
Note that this package can not ENcode AAC audio (although it can DEcode the
AAC format just fine). Look here if you need a package with AAC encoder: https://slackware.nl/people/alien/re...builds/ffmpeg/

poppler-compat: updated to 24.03.0 (Slackware-current).
Install this '-compat' package if you are facing broken 3rd-party packages
after the 'poppler' package in Slackware-current gets updated.
just a question on the builds (even if I know i must use packages of course). When I build chromium (standard), everything runs OK, but when i try to build the chromium-ungoogled, it breaks, I guess because of the APIs or else. I wanted to know what causes the build to do so. Not a critical question, just wanted to understand the process. Thanks
