  group (80).
a/udev-111-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to udev-111.  Thanks to Piter Punk for keeping
  everything in this package working as well as it does.  :-)
d/subversion-1.4.3-i486-2.tgz:  Recompiled with support for the mod_authz_svn
  and mod_dav_svn modules for httpd-2.2.4 (apache2).
l/pilot-link-0.12.2-i486-3.tgz:  Removed empty /usr/share/pilot-link/udev/.
n/apache-1.3.37-i486-3.tgz:  Removed.

  to be more like the other Slackware rc.* scripts.
  Chmoded /etc/bluetooth/passkeys/ to mode 700.
  Located the udev related files properly (thanks to Piter Punk).
n/httpd-2.2.4-i486-1.tgz:  The package formerly known as "apache", upgraded
  to httpd-2.2.4.
n/mod_ssl-2.8.28_1.3.37-i486-1.tgz:  Removed, as this is now built into httpd.
n/nfs-utils-1.1.0-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to nfs-utils-1.1.0.  This no longer
  tries to use "rpc.lockd" (nor contains it), so be sure to upgrade to the new
  versions of the init scripts.  Thanks to Jonathan Woithe for the hint about
  linking with -lnsl after -lwrap, and for passing along a small patch for a
  memory leak in mountd.

Wed May 16 15:49:51 CDT 2007
a/sysvinit-scripts-1.2-noarch-9.tgz:  Many reports of problems after
  the last addition of the old trick for flushing disk buffers.  I guess
  if your rc.local needs this sort of thing to avoid trouble at boot, that
  you'd better add it near the beginning of that script.
l/libpng-1.2.18-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to libpng-1.2.18.
  A grayscale PNG image with a malformed (bad CRC) tRNS chunk will crash some
  libpng applications.  This vulnerability has been assigned the identifiers
  CVE-2007-2445 and CERT VU#684664.

xap/xfce-4.4.1-i486-3.tgz:  Recompiled against HAL.
extra/linux-2.6.21.3-nosmp-sdk/:  Upgraded the kit to transform the Linux
  kernel sources in /usr/src/linux/ from SMP to non-SMP without having to
  recompile them.  NOTE:  it is probably best to use the SMP kernel even in
  a single processor machine if it will run.  The non-SMP kernels should
  really be used only in machines that are not at least a Pentium-Pro, or
  that (for some other reason) will not properly run the SMP kernel.
extra/linux-wlan-ng/linux-wlan-ng-0.2.8_2.6.21.3-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to
  linux-wlan-ng-0.2.8 with modules for Linux 2.6.21.3 (both SMP and non-SMP).
extra/xcdroast:  This has been shuffled off to unsupported, at least for now.
  But before moving it, it was patched for -current and rebuilt with GTK+2.
isolinux/initrd.img:  Comment out /dev/cdrom line in /etc/fstab, as it
  interferes with HAL.  After installing, you'll have to decide if the machine
  will use HAL or not.  If so, rc.hald will have been selected to run during
  the installation (by default it will be off), or chmoded 755 later.  If HAL
  will not be used, the line in /etc/fstab should be uncommented.
  Changed timezone on the installer to GMT-12, so that when the true timezone
  is known at first boot, the filesystems will all have been created and
  last checked in the past.  Added /sbin/sfdisk.
isolinux/{network,pcmcia}.dsk:  Upgraded to 2.6.21.3 modules (thanks Eric!).
kernels/hugesmp.s/*:  Upgraded hugesmp.s kernel to 2.6.21.3 (SMP).
kernels/huge.s/*:  Upgraded huge.s kernel to 2.6.21.3.
kernels/gensmp.s/*:  Upgraded gensmp.s kernel to 2.6.21.3 (SMP).
kernels/generic.s/*:  Upgraded generic.s kernel to 2.6.21.3.
usb-and-pxe-installers/:  Updated USB and PXE installers.
  Thanks to Eric Hameleers.

a/umsdos-progs-1.13-i386-1.tgz:  Removed, since the 2.6.x kernel does not
  support the UMSDOS filesystem.
n/httpd-2.2.4-i486-2.tgz:  Fixed /usr/doc/httpd-2.2.4/ directory.

    "This release continues to improve the security and the stability of the
    5.X branch as well as addressing two regressions introduced by the

l/mcs-0.4.1-i486-2.tgz:  slack-desc typo fix.
l/lzo-2.02-i486-1.tgz:  Added lzo-2.02.  Thanks to Ricardson Williams.
l/shared-mime-info-0.21-i486-2.tgz:  Fixed an uncompressed man page.
  Thanks to Michael Wagner for pointing out the uncompressed man page.
l/svgalib_helper-1.9.25_2.6.21.5-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded svgalib_helper package.
  Both SMP and non-SMP kernel modules are included.

n/bind-9.4.1-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to bind-9.4.1.
n/httpd-2.2.4-i486-4.tgz:  Moved the main directory to the usual Slackware
  location of "/var/www", which should ease transitioning existing sites as
  well as prevent /srv from becoming (right away) a bloated top-level
  directory.  In /srv, make two symlinks for FHS compliance:
  /srv/www -> /var/www (this makes htdig with KDE work again), and
  /srv/httpd -> /var/www (/srv/httpd will be the default path used in the
  httpd.conf, and seems to me to be following the spirit behind "/srv").
  Thanks to Willy Sudiarto Raharjo for pointing out that these paths
  needed some adjustment to fix KDE's help search system (htdig).
  Since the old apache had visible log files (in a 755 mode directory),
  make these visible, too.  If the admin wants to lock them down, we'll
  make sure the chosen mode sticks.  Thanks to Dieter Rauschenberger.
n/lynx-2.8.6rel.5-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to lynx-2.8.6rel.5.  Compiled with
  --with-screen=ncursesw and --enable-widec.  Thanks to Stas Boukarev.
n/mcabber-0.9.2-i486-1.tgz:  Added mcabber-0.9.2.
n/mtr-0.72-i486-1.tgz:  Added mtr-0.72.

n/nmap-4.20-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to nmap-4.20.
n/openssl-0.9.8e-i486-3.tgz:  Added certwatch script.  Thanks to Jan Rafaj.
n/openvpn-2.0.9-i486-1.tgz:  Added openvpn-2.0.9.  Thanks to Alan Hicks.  :-)
n/sendmail-8.14.1-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to sendmail-8.14.1.

x/dejavu-ttf-2.17-noarch-1.tgz:  Upgraded to dejavu-ttf-2.17.
x/xkeyboard-config-0.9-noarch-2.tgz:  Make sure /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/pc is
  installed as a file.  If not, back up /etc/X11/xkb to make way for the new
  structure of xkeyboard-config.
  Thanks to Corvin Dun and David Jeannot for the bug reports.
xap/audacious-plugins-1.3.5-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to audacious-plugins-1.3.5.
xap/mozilla-thunderbird-2.0.0.4-i686-1.tgz:  Upgraded to thunderbird-2.0.0.4.
  This upgrade fixes two possible security bugs.

xap/pidgin-2.0.1-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to pidgin-2.0.1.

xap/xfce-4.4.1-i486-4.tgz:  Fixed uncompressed man pages.
  Escaped the ':'s in /etc/profile.d/xfce.csh.  Thanks to Laurence Darby.
xap/xine-lib-1.1.7-i686-1.tgz:  Upgraded to xine-lib-1.1.7.
extra/grub/grub-0.97-i486-3.tgz:  Use C locale for proper fdisk parsing in
  other locales.  Thanks to Seb for the patch.  :-)
extra/intel-wlan-ipw3945:  Added kernel patches and support sources for
  using the Intel ipw3945 wireless drivers.  Due to the need to patch the
  kernel for a newer ieee80211 subsystem, these are all in source form
  rather than as packages.  Consider it an opportunity to learn.  :-)
extra/linux-wlan-ng/linux-wlan-ng-0.2.8_2.6.21.5-i486-1.tgz:  Recompiled
  linux-wlan-ng-0.2.8 with modules for Linux 2.6.21.5 (both SMP and non-SMP).
extra/linux-2.6.21.5-nosmp-sdk/:  Upgraded the kit to transform the Linux
  kernel sources in /usr/src/linux/ from SMP to non-SMP without having to
  recompile them.  NOTE:  it is probably best to use the SMP kernel even in
  a single processor machine if it will run.  The non-SMP kernels should
  really be used only in machines that are not at least a Pentium-Pro, or
  that (for some other reason) will not properly run the SMP kernel.
extra/slackpkg/slackpkg-2.61-noarch-2.tgz:  Upgraded to
  slackpkg-2.61-noarch-2.  Thanks to Piter Punk!
isolinux/initrd.img:  Merged Eric Hameleers' LVM installer changes.
  Added cryptsetup.  Updated syslinux.  Added dhcpcd.
  Version number bump.
kernels/huge.s/*:  Upgraded huge.s kernel to 2.6.21.5.
kernels/hugesmp.s/*:  Upgraded hugesmp.s kernel to 2.6.21.5 (SMP).
kernels/speakup.s/*:  Added kernel with Speakup support.
usb-and-pxe-installers/:  Updated USB and PXE installers with merged-in
  (semi-DIY) LVM and crypto support.  Thanks to Eric Hameleers!
usb-and-pxe-installers/etherboot/:  Added floppy images to support a PXE
  install with Ethernet cards and/or BIOS that lack hardware PXE support.
  Thanks to Erik Jan Tromp for keeping the floppy disk install alive!
+--------------------------+
Wed Jun 13 22:14:23 CDT 2007
l/libexif-0.6.16-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to libexif-0.6.16.
  An integer overflow in libexif can crash applications that use the library
  on malformed images.  The upstream advisory indicates that this flaw could
  also be used to execute arbitrary code in the context of the user, but no
  exploit is known (by us) to exist among iDefense's researchers or in the
  wild.  But, as a crash bug and heap overflow one must suppose that the
  possibility exists.

d/gettext-tools-0.16.1-i486-3.tgz:  Added back "archive.tar.gz" which is not

  inquire with the developers of the upstream source before requesting that

k/kernel-source-2.6.21.5_smp-noarch-2.tgz
  Rebuilt the Linux 2.6.21.5 SMP kernel source, removing the
  CONFIG_HEADERS_CHECK option.  Thanks to Cardoe in #hal for cluing us in

This might as well be called 12.0 RC2 so that we're not accused on skimping on
release candidates.  ;-)  Still going through various reports, and (especially)
looking into getting the php.ini defaults reasonable (as well as figuring out
which features can be safely built as extensions).  But, we're getting there.
a/aaa_elflibs-12.0.0-i486-3.tgz:  Fixed a bad link in the install script.  I
  think the first-boot ldconfig would fix it anyway, but we like things clean
  around here.  Thanks to Robert Boucher for noticing this.
a/pkgtools-12.0.0-noarch-3.tgz:  Added an installer script to make a
  /usr/bin/htmlview symlink if one does not already exist (programs in
  Slackware are starting to expect htmlview, which is not yet a standard but
  seems to be becoming an ad-hoc one...)  So, adding it probably won't hurt
  too much, other than possibly stinging other distributions that haven't yet
  added this by encouraging its use.  Shame on us.  ;-)
  Thanks to Nikos Skalkotos for pointing out that CUPS uses this script,
  alias, symlink -- whatever the local implementation...
a/udev-111-i486-4.tgz:  Make the restart option more through.  Thanks to
  Andrea Zulato for reporting that stop/start was needed to load rule changes,
  and to Piter Punk for fixing rc.udev.
a/util-linux-2.12r-i486-6.tgz:  Patched a problem where umounting by UUID
  would cause umount to segfault for non-root users.  Thanks to Diogo R
  for the pointer to a patch at http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/7211.
  Evidently this has already been reported upstream.
d/binutils-2.17.50.0.17-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to binutils-2.17.50.0.17.
  Thanks to Giacomo Lozito for reporting that this was released and seems to
  be fixing problems with 'ld' segfaulting.
d/oprofile-0.9.2-i486-5.tgz:  Recompiled against new (binutils) libbfd.
kde/k3b-1.0.2-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to k3b-1.0.2.
kdei/k3b-i18n-1.0.2-noarch-1.tgz:  Upgraded to k3b-i18n-1.0.2.
l/pilot-link-0.12.2-i486-4.tgz:  Fixed a bug in pilot-link.m4.
  Thanks to Michael Stenzel for the bug report and a link to a patch.
xap/xchat-2.8.2-i486-2.tgz:  Recompiled with official patch.  Thanks to Tsomi.
extra/intel-wlan-ipw3945:  Added a few missing bits and rearranged the tree
  a bit.  Thanks to Gabriel Linder for noticing that the kernel module
  happens to work with the ieee80211 stack already in our kernel.  That makes
  getting this to work quite a bit easier.  :-)
isolinux/initrd.img:  Updated with fixed umount.
pasture/:  Flushed devfsd and ipchains.  Thanks to Cal Peake.
usb-and-pxe-installers/:  Updated with fixed umount.
usb-and-pxe-installers/etherboot/:  Various fixes and docs improvements.
  Thanks to Erik Jan Tromp.

a/pkgtools-12.0.0-noarch-4.tgz:  Fixed htmlview, making it a short script
  rather than a symlink (which doesn't always work).
  Thanks to Sander de Leeuw for the report and fix.
kde/kvpnc-0.8.9-i486-1.tgz:  Removed.  The reports were that this wasn't
  working (though some said that earlier versions never included in
  Slackware did).  So, it's been deemed not quite stable enough for the
  stable release.  We'll look at it again for next time.
l/gd-2.0.35-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to gd-2.0.35.
  This fixes a few possible security issues:
     * Possible infinite loop in the PNG reader
     * Possible integer overflow in gdImageCreateTrueColor
     * Possible crash in gdImageCreateXbm
     * Numerous flaws in the GIF reader
  (* Security fix *)
l/gmime-2.2.9-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to gmime-2.2.9.
n/pssh-1.3.1-noarch-1.tgz:  Added pssh-1.3.1, python scripts to run openssh
  tools in parallel.  Thanks to Jan Rafaj for the build script.  Normally I
  wouldn't add things in late RC, but for Jan I'll make an exception.  :-)
n/samba-3.0.25b-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to samba-3.0.25b.
x/xf86-video-savage-2.1.2-i486-2.tgz:  Committed upstream patch to fix a crash
  of the savage_drv.so driver when respawned.  Thanks to Michael Wagner.
isolinux/initrd.img:  Added parted-1.8.7 tools.
kernels/speakup.s/:  Backed up speakup to CVS 2007-03-03 and recompiled.
  I'm hoping this fixes a DecTalk Express problem.
  Thanks to Stephen C. Greeley for all the help debugging this.
usb-and-pxe-installers/:  Added parted-1.8.7 tools.

a/cxxlibs-6.0.8-i486-4.tgz:  Restored libstdc++-3-libc6.1-2-2.10.0.so, still
  required for some commercial software.  (Yikes!)
a/hdparm-7.6-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to hdparm-7.6.
a/mkinitrd-1.1.2-i486-3.tgz:  Fixed a cosmetic boot-time error if cryptsetup is
  not used in the initramfs.
a/sysvinit-scripts-1.2-noarch-13.tgz:  Mount usbfs regardless of whether udev
  is used.  VMware and other things need this.  Thanks to Bren.
  Oh, and BTW -- use udev.  :-)
d/libtool-1.5.24-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to libtool-1.5.24.
d/p2c-1.21alpha2-i486-3.tgz:  Fixed build script to optimize properly.
  Thanks to Martijn Dekker for the bug report and fix.
d/rcs-5.7-i486-2.tgz:  Fixed incorrect perms (711) on binaries.
  Thanks to Selkfoster for the report.
l/cairo-1.4.10-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to cairo-1.4.10.
l/hal-0.5.9.1-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to hal-0.5.9.1.
l/hal-info-20070618-noarch-1.tgz:  Upgraded to hal-info-20070618.
n/dhcp-3.0.5-i486-2.tgz:  Patched kernel version detection in ./configure,
  which might make dhclient work.  dhcpcd is probably still better though :-)
  Thanks to Dagmar d'Surreal for the patch.
n/httpd-2.2.4-i486-5.tgz:  Made the package install script look at the
  contents of /srv and take care not to wipe out any existing website there,
  but to back it up instead.  Sorry if previous packages bit your site...
n/iptables-1.3.8-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to iptables-1.3.8.
n/tcpdump-3.9.6-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to libpcap-0.9.6 and tcpdump-3.9.6.
n/whois-4.7.21-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to whois-4.7.21.
t/tetex-3.0-i486-5.tgz:  An often-reported bug in the tetex package has been
  the missing /var/lib/texmf directory.  Some time ago, this was removed for
  security reasons, since it could possibly be used to overwrite system files
  by symlinking to them from "font names".  The directory, to be useful, had
  to be world-writable, or at least writable to a tetex group.
  Then, Mikhail Ulanov suggested setting VARTEXFONTS = $TEXMFVAR, which
  causes fonts to be built in $HOME/.texmf-var instead.  Now TeX is working
  again for non-root users.  Thanks very much Mikhail!  :-)
t/tetex-doc-3.0-i486-5.tgz:  Rebuilt.
x/libX11-1.1.1-i486-4.tgz:  Patched to fix a bug introduced while converting
  some code from K&R to ANSI C.  This should make gdk+ and GIMP a lot more
  stable.  Thanks to Robby Workman for pointing out the patch on the
  freedesktop.org site.  And thanks to dive from LQ for suggesting we look
  at libX11, too.  :-)
