and thanks for the Slackware-current SBo git!
I think this round you should thank mainly David Spencer, as he provided many more patches than me!

You can download it here or grab it from my Github repo:

$ git clone https://github.com/kikinovak/microlinux

Take a peek in the tools/ directory.

Cheers,

Niki
Merci, Niki! You have a few interesting scripts in your tools/.

Thanks, David! BTW, I was going to contact David about his libharu.SlackBuild that, IMHO, would run better with cmake instead of aclocal, libtoolize, automake, autoconf, configure, as I did here https://github.com/igorek7/SlackBuil...master/libharu

Even excluding the KDE/KDEI ones, that's still a pretty weighty update. The Inner-sysadmin that lives in the back of my mind just gave a Vaderesque scream of: "NOOOOOOOOooooooooOOOOOOOoooooooOOOOoooOOO!... Always change one thing at a time!" and ran off, screaming for his mummy!

Definitely backup time before this little lot goes on.

I've tried the example on https://www.safaribooksonline.com/li...0/ch10s08.html with the rebuilt python-2.7.10-x86_64-2 and the gdbm module works fine for me.

After 5 upgrades I didn't need my back-ups at all. No anomalies encountered during the upgrade process. All is well.

A very smooth upgrade here as well (thanks to Patrick and Team!). Now let's rebuild the SBo stuff.

Everything still works

Even my Banshee and Rigs of Rods packages still do (although banshee complains about libvpx and libnettle, so a tiny little bit may be broken there now).

Good work! Thanks to all contributors for keeping Slackware alive and well.

Thanks to kikinovak for the test script. I ran it and found a lot of lost lib files. I never seem to learn to wait a week or two after major updates. Instead, I install them right away.
Here is what is broken now. Thankfully none of my major software:
aumix, epsffit, gmicparser, krita, mencoder, mplayer, psbook, psnup, psresize, psselect, pstops, quanta, and step.

I will probably just do a complete reinstallation rather than battle with solving the discrepancies.
But only after the next release.

Also nice to see that the python plugins are now included in kate!

They are very useful for webdesign and various other tasks.
