Hello, I am CCing this message to the Vinux and blinux mailing list because noi all Slint users are registered to the slint mailing list. I hope that will not be considered as spam. Currently there are two different Slint packages repositories for versions 14.2.1 and 14.2.1.2 (64-bit). However every user running a previous 64 bit version can upgrade to 14.2.1.2 without issue, so I will soon cease to maintain the packages for 14.2.1, that will be replaced by packages provided for 14.2.1.2. Then we will end up with only one package repository, whose URL will be: http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-14.2.1/slint/ The package previously stored in this repository will be tentatively stored in another one, just in case, but will not be further updated. Users already running slint64-14.2.1.2 will need to change this line in /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc: SOURCE=http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-testing/:PREFERRED so it becomes: SOURCE=http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-14.2.1/:PREFERRED I will provide a new slapt-get package including a modified slapt-getrc with the new line, so running dotnew after this update will allow you to just accept this replacement, then case occurring edit slapt-getrc to include customization you made in the previous one. The old one will have been renamed /etc/slapt-get/slaptr-getrc.orig if replaced. To insure a smooth transition, this URL: http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-testing/ will become a link to: http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-14.2.1/ during a few days after having provided the new slapt-get package. Users having not yet upgraded to Slint64-14.2.1.2 (if any) can either: 1) Upgrade right now, following instructions provided here: http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-14.2.1/doc/README.upgrade 2) Or choose to wait that the new slapt-get package be available. But then follow carefully the instructions given in this document (but step 2), or expect issues, possibly leading to a system unable to boot. Of course it that happens we'll try to help <smile> These changes will occur very soon, I will announce only on the Slint mailing list when done. I anything is unclear (and not only because English is not my native language) please post your questions preferably in the Slint mailing list (registration mandatory).
