Applied fixed patch - this has a better chance of working now. I've checked and hpcups no longer links to libImageProcessor. Which, by the way, the previous build dumped onto my main system (not even in "make install"), but not into the package itself. I no longer own an HP printer and will never buy another one, so if there are any remaining problems please report.

Thanks to ivandi. Also (in the comments) provide a possibly better but untested solution. Thanks to SeB. a/sysvinit-2.90-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. sysvinit-2.90 added an undocumented feature that tries to spawn agetty if it sees console= in the kernel command line. Avoiding the debate about whether this code belongs in init at all, at least such a change should be documented, and probably made opt-in. This patch disables the new behavior unless "sysvinit_agetty" is also seen in the kernel command line. It seems like this might have been something added for Hurd, and it might be wise to stick to what we've got rather than following upstream on this particular package. If anyone notices any other odd behavior, please let me know. Thanks to shastah. a/sysvinit-scripts-2.1-noarch-19.txz: Rebuilt. When checking for intel_pstate, direct the stderr to /dev/null in case the file doesn't exist in /sys. Thanks to ivandi.

As most of you are already aware by now, the financal situation here at Slackware HQ has not been great for many years, including not getting any pay for the last two years and forcing me (and my family) to live very frugally while I continued to work on the project hoping I'd figure out a way to actually monitize it by the time that Slackware 15.0 is ready for release. I'm not trying to cast any blame regarding the situation. Really, I can only blame myself for not trying to build my own ship years ago when things began to not really work out. I'm still looking into sustainable funding options such as Patreon or Liberapay (or perhaps both), and I'm open to other ideas. I'm no longer in immediate danger of going broke, and I'm no longer entertaining the notion of joining my friends at the local potato chip factory in order to pay my bills. :) My family is grateful and humbled by the support we've received. Hope we'll be able to keep this project going for a long time. Also, I realize that the website lacks updates and needs attention and I will need to find some time to devote to that. I've never been much of a website designer, and the slackware.com site is basically left over from work done by former Walnut Creek / BSDi employees. I've never seen able to make much sense of the SQL backend. The interface to edit and post articles is clunky (and I'm not sure the PHP for that even works any more). When I've posted articles in recent years, I've done so by editing the main page already processed from PHP into HTML, which is pretty darn messy as I'm sure you can imagine. I tend to prioritize the distribution itself over other demands on my time - that's clearly a lot to do with how things ended up the way they did. So, I guess that's the report for now. Lots more work to do and not enough time to do it in... that part I don't see changing moving forward. :) Thanks very much again. I'll do my best to keep you all posted. - Pat a/file-5.34-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. a/kernel-firmware-20180727_b01151b-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded. a/kernel-generic-4.14.58-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. a/kernel-huge-4.14.58-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. a/kernel-modules-4.14.58-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/gcc-8.2.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/gcc-brig-8.2.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/gcc-g++-8.2.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/gcc-gfortran-8.2.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/gcc-gnat-8.2.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/gcc-go-8.2.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/gcc-objc-8.2.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/kernel-headers-4.14.58-x86-1.txz: Upgraded. d/libtool-2.4.6-x86_64-9.txz: Rebuilt.

For nvidia cards, if they are GeForce 8 or newer use the modesetting driver by default.

Rebuilt this and many other font packages or packages with build scripts that call mkfontdir or mkfontscale to suppress any error messages caused by collisions if another package installation is writing files to the same font directories when those utilities are run. In that case, the other package will also be running mkfontdir/mkfontscale after the files are installed, so any issues will be cleaned up then.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thu Jun 30 20:26:57 UTC 2016 Slackware 14.2 x86_64 stable is released! The long development cycle (the Linux community has lately been living in "interesting times", as they say) is finally behind us, and we're proud to announce the release of Slackware 14.2. The new release brings many updates and modern tools, has switched from udev to eudev (no systemd), and adds well over a hundred new packages to the system. Thanks to the team, the upstream developers, the dedicated Slackware community, and everyone else who pitched in to help make this release a reality. The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided 32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. Please consider supporting the Slackware project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com. We're taking pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription. Have fun! :-)
