Slackwarearm-current ChangeLog (2018-06-10)
Sun Jun 10 08:08:08 UTC 2018
installdocs/INSTALL_Tegra20.TXT: Updated.
Updated post OS install tweaks. Suggest disabling NetworkManager if the DHCP
lease acquisition period is too great. The Slackware 15.0 installer sets
NetworkManager as the default, so this may be an issue for some people who
have NFS mounts that are required as part of boot.
Packages
Removed
installdocs/INSTALL_QEMU.TXT
Slackware ARM no longer supports QEMU, as nobody has stepped forward to own it,
and the author of the Slackware ARM project has no need for it. The Linux
kernel package will continue to provide the hardware support, but the QEMU
supporting scripts and documentation have been moved out of the tree:
ftp://ftp.arm.slackware.com/slackwarearm/boardsupport/qemu/INSTALL_QEMU.TXT
If you want to step up, please find the thread on the 'Slackware ARM' board on
LinuxQuestions.

Sanitize the diagnostic output of the original file name in verbose mode.
By using a made up file name in the message it was possible to fake status
messages. Using this technique it was for example possible to fake the
verification status of a signed mail.

DESCRIPTION section
Thanks to Xsane. - ap/ghostscript-fonts-std-8.11-noarch-3.txz
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. Last one out turn
off the lights, so to speak. - ap/terminus-font-4.40-noarch-3.txz
- l/glibc-2.27-arm-3.txz
When installing the package, remove old versions of the glibc shared
libraries. In addition to eliminating residue on the system from old
package versions, this change will make it possible in the future to
revert to older glibc packages using upgradepkg. - l/glibc-i18n-2.27-arm-3.txz
