Alien's Slackware packages

Fri, 15 Feb 2019 22:29:11 GMT
lumina: removed from the -current repository because it will no longer run with Qt5 > 5.9 and the developer won't fix it.
Thu, 14 Feb 2019 23:06:03 GMT
SDL_sound: built a Slackware-current package (this is a dependency for the OpenAL package). libxkbcommon: updated to 0.8.3 for Slackware-current. qt5: updated to 5.12.1 for slackware-current. qt5-webkit: recompiled to the new qt5 in slackware-current.

The ktown updates are targeting Slackware -current only. Updates of the KDE 5 package sets for Slackware 14.2 have come to an end. Upgrading from the previous 5_19.01 is straight-forward. Read […]

Alien's multilib packages

Sun, 17 Feb 2019 15:51:21 GMT
current/glibc-2.29_multilib-x86_64-3alien.txz: Rebuilt. current/glibc-i18n-2.29_multilib-x86_64-3alien.txz: Rebuilt. current/glibc-profile-2.29_multilib-x86_64-3alien.txz: Rebuilt. Go back to using the glibc.locale.no-archive.diff patch rather than the new built-in no-archive locale target. Avoiding hardlinks is not worth 700MB of useless bloat. current/glibc-solibs-2.29_multilib-x86_64-3alien.txz: Rebuilt.

Archive for the tag "bios"

I thought it would be a cool idea to celebrate the “farewell to udev”. With the abandoned ConsoleKit replaced by ConsoleKit2 which is actively maintained by the Slackware-friendly XFCE crew, and Gentoo’s eudev taking the place of udev, we are well equipped to keep systemd out of our distro for a while.
