a/etc-15.0-i586-15.txz
/etc/profile: Don't define a $LESS variable, but provide a commented-out
example of “-M -R”. As far as I can tell, setting $LESS to -M is something
that we picked up from SLS's /etc/profile at the very beginning and then
kept it because it wasn't causing any problems. Personally, I'll be
uncommenting this because it's nice to get the extra output from less
provided by -M concerning your place in the file, but we'll leave it up
to the end user how to handle this.

Hey everyone, long time no see! No, I wasn't out fishing. Sadly, I haven't had
a fishing rod in my hand (or even a fishing license in my wallet) for this
entire season, but there may yet be a chance for that this year. Along with the
usual suspects, I've been trying to clear out the list of things that needed
to get done in order to reach the standard of excellence demanded from a
Slackware release, and I think we've gotten it pretty close. GCC was bumped to
version 11.2.0 (because we just can't send this out 2 versions behind), and
everything was verified to build properly or fixed up so that it did. I don't
see any benefit to another public mass rebuild, so we're not going to do one.
Anyway, without further ado, here is Slackware 15.0 release candidate one.
Consider most things frozen and the focus now to be any remaining blocker bugs.
We'll more than likely take that next Plasma bugfix release, but it's soon
time to get off this treadmill. Enjoy!

Since glibc-2.34 makes a potentially risky change of moving all functions
into the main library, and another inconvenient (for us) change of renaming
the library files, we'll stick with glibc-2.33 for Slackware 15.0 and test
the newer glibc in the next release cycle. But we'll backport the security
fixes from glibc-2.34 with this update:
The nameserver caching daemon (nscd), when processing a request for netgroup
lookup, may crash due to a double-free, potentially resulting in degraded
service or Denial of Service on the local system. Reported by Chris Schanzle.
The mq_notify function has a potential use-after-free issue when using a
notification type of SIGEV_THREAD and a thread attribute with a non-default
affinity mask.
The wordexp function may overflow the positional parameter number when
processing the expansion resulting in a crash. Reported by Philippe Antoine.
