More recompilation was needed after icu4c update in slackware-current. Rebuilt for -current is: deps/telepathy:telepathy-mission-control Since I had the VM up & running anyway I also updated: applications:konsole (patched to change the $TERM to 'konsole') applications-extra:digikan,krita,skanlite (version upgrades)

Some recompilation was needed after icu4c and poppler updates in slackware-current. Rebuilt for -current are: deps:qt5,qt5-webkit,poppler deps/telepathy:libaccounts-glib,telepathy-gabble,telepathy-logger frameworks:kfilemetadata5 plasma:plasma5-nm applications:okular applications-extra:calligra,kdevelop,kile And as a bonus you get two new packages: applications-extra:alkimia,kmymoney Note: the 'testing' repository will not get updates now, so you better switch back to 'lstest' temporarily.
