The fix for 14.2 could be a simple repackaging where the the `rm` and `ln` lines for libm.so in doinst.sh are pounded as they are for libpthread.

p.s. and one certainly does not want glibc-2.24 from -current on 14.2 which has glibc-2.23 ...

Sorry, I haven't checked -stable. Maybe Pat V forgot to rebuild the glibc packages for -stable.

Or decided it wasn't worth a patch (or decided to wait until something bigger requires a patch).

"... or decided to wait until something bigger requires a patch" -- Yes I also thought so.

Did you find an updated Package for glibc-2.23 in the Slackware 14.2 tree that I missed ?

No indeed. I said "Fixed , Thanks" because this thread is for -current.

You're absolutely correct, yes it is !

Thank you !

OpenVPN 2.3.12 has been released: ChangeLog

Amongst others it discourages the use of 64-bit block ciphers. See https://sweet32.info/ for background. The default cipher still seems to be BF-CBC, so there shouldn't be compatibility problems. (OpenSSL was also patched because of this, but probably as it has been rated as LOW risk, there is no new release yet, see https://www.openssl.org/blog/blog/2016/08/24/sweet32/)

Btw.: the --enable-password-save option used in the current SlackBuild has been removed since 2.3.9.

After 25 years of development looks like a new release of tin:

The announcement in news.software.readers:

Message-ID: <npi2b7$5ne$1@nntp.de>

links to the original release of tin:

And who said Usenet was dying

save the resume partition.
I had an upgrade, and couldn't help but wonder why out of sudden my laptop can't resume hibernation

Code:

# mcedit /etc/mkinitrd.conf
# mkinitrd -F

solved it finally

also i modify the stock mkinitrd.conf in following way:

Code:

# mkinitrd.conf.sample
# See "man mkinitrd.conf" for details on the syntax of this file
#
#SOURCE_TREE="/boot/initrd-tree"
#CLEAR_TREE="0"
KERNEL_VERSION="$(uname -r)"
OUTPUT_IMAGE="/boot/initrd-${KERNEL_VERSION}.gz"
#KEYMAP="us"
MODULE_LIST="reiserfs:power"
#LUKSDEV="/dev/sda2"
#LUKSKEY="LABEL=TRAVELSTICK:/keys/alienbob.luks"
ROOTDEV="/dev/sda3"
ROOTFS="reiserfs"
RESUMEDEV="/dev/sda5"
#RAID="0"
#LVM="0"
#UDEV="1"
#MODCONF="0"
#WAIT="1"

to get:

Code:

/boot/initrd-<version>.gz

as i used to run quite a few kernels on occasion

the key is in order of KERNEL_VERSION and OUTPUT_IMAGE

I will admit, I never hibernate my systems, so I never set up a resume partition.

Me neither, the (so many) desktop stations.
But then, i use laptops, which just end up having hibernated one way or the other

Hello,

The patch below (from this post) should be applied to slackpkg to fix a bug that prevent it to print the complete list of duplicate packages when the name of any of these packages contains one (or more) character "+" (see here and there) :
