I found this when I did a grep for binutils: binutils-2.37-x86_64-1-upgraded-2022-02-11,19:13:10. Slackpkg would not upgrade or remove, but removepkg binutils-2.37 worked like a charm, and slackpkg was again ready to slackpkg upgrade-all without missing a beat.

Depending on when exactly the upgrade was killed, the new binutils-2.38 may now be installed ok, only partly, or not at all. If it's not in /var/log/packages, 'slackpkg install binutils'. Or if it is there, 'slackpkg reinstall binutils'.
