Slackware-13.0 ChangeLog (2009-03-16)

Mon Mar 16 00:11:40 CDT 2009

ChangeLog bugs in the last update:
eigen was removed, not moved from /testing. This was intentional, as we
are not aware of anything that has not moved to using eigen2 now.
k3b was upgraded to k3b-r936571 in kde/, but does not seem to be stable.
The installers were updated and now support ext4.
  • a/cpio-2.9-i486-2.tgz
    Thanks to Fred Emmott.
    ap/foomatic-filters-4.0_20090315-i486-1.tgz:
    Upgraded to foomatic-filters-4.0_20090315.
    Thanks to Beej Jorgensen for pointing out this version with many bugfixes.
    d/gcc-4.3.3-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled with –enable-libssp. Removing that was
    a regression as there are binaries out there that expect to link with
    libspp. If it causes any problems, let me know.
    d/gcc-g++-4.3.3-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled.
    d/gcc-gfortran-4.3.3-i486-2.tgz: Recompiled.

  • l/freetype-2.3.9-i486-1.tgz

    use the FT_Get_PS_Font_Info function will need to be recompiled.
