Raw Blame History

Tue Jun 19 06:13:22 UTC 2007
Okay, guys, this is (hopefully) the last of the additions to our 11.0
repository. There are two more still in the pending queue, but
there's a good chance that they won't make the cut this time.
As we mentioned on the mailing list last week, we are putting the
vast majority of our time and effort into getting everything ready
for Slackware 12.0's release. That being the case, if you have
submitted something that did not get included and you haven't heard
from us about it, please resubmit it after we are back to normal
(whatever that is) around here after 12.0 releases.
Thanks to *everyone* for your submissions, public relations help,
and anything else you did to support the project this past year.
On a personal note, I (rworkman) would like to extend a big thanks
to all of the other SlackBuilds.org team members - I greatly

First of all, it's probably a good idea to clarify a couple of things from the
batch of updates on 20070508. We credited Volkerding in the gnutls, poppler,
and poppler-data scripts; in case it's not obvious, he didn't submit them to
us - we simply pulled them from the Slackware -current sources and modified
them as needed to build on 11.0. In other words, if you experience a problem
with one of those scripts, don't bother Pat - they're ours. Now, with all of
that said, let's get on to the good stuff... --rworkman

specifically configured for use with Audacity.
Thanks to Chess Griffin. --alien

Mon Nov 13 12:41:07 UTC 2006
misc/wine: Updated for version 0.9.25. The World of Warcraft patch for
nvidia cards is no longer needed in most cases (according to the folks
who maintain it - see the script for details), but we're leaving the
capability to patch it for at least one more release cycle in case some
people still need it. --robw810
+--------------------------+

development/mono: Added - Mono is a open-source implementation of the
.NET Framework. Thanks to dadexter.
games/scummvm: Added - ScummVM is a collection of interpreters capable of
emulating several adventure game engines. This one probably should have

libraries/id3lib: Added - id3lib is a software library for manipulating ID3v1

editor for mp3, ogg, and various other files. Thanks to Yalla-One.
office/openoffice.org: Added a doinst.sh script to update the desktop and
mime databases after installation; fixed a (stupid) bug that caused an
error if an older version's extracted sources were still present in $TMP.
Thanks to colmcille for the report.
The template.SlackBuild script (http://slackbuilds.org/template.SlackBuild)
has been modified slightly to reflect some lessons learned - please
adjust your local templates accordingly. --robw810/elohim

libraries/SDL_image: Removed.
libraries/SDL_mixer: Removed.
libraries/SDL_net: Removed.
These are bundled with the Slackware SDL package. If you built and
installed these from SBo and wish to remove them, you will need to
re-install the official SDL package to get these libraries back.
This was my fault for not checking closely enough, sorry. --elohim
+--------------------------+
Mon Oct 30 04:20:23 UTC 2006
system/gkrellm-volume: Added - a sound mixer plugin for gkrellm. Thanks to
Paul Wisehart. I made a relatively heavy patch to the Makefiles included
with this plugin to support installing with DESTDIR, and my changes seem
fine as far as I can tell here, but let me know if there's anything I
missed - we can always manually copy the needed files to their locations.
system/cdrkit: Fixed an overlooked -mcpu flag.
system/yakuake: Fixed an overlooked -mcpu flag. Thanks to dadexter for both
of these - it's nice to have someone with too much time on their hands. :-)

network/rt2500: Added - driver for the Ralink 2500 series chipsets in wifi
adapters. Thanks to dadexter.
office/openoffice.org: Fixed an apparent error in the script caused by sed
attempting to operate on a symlink. A harmless error message was displayed,
but it did create the appearance of a problem, so it's fixed now. Thanks
to Yalla-One for the report.
system/mrxvt: Added - mrxvt is a lightweight terminal emulator. Thanks to
Paul Wisehart.
+--------------------------+
Thu Oct 26 17:47:59 UTC 2006

standards. Thanks to dadexter. --robw810/elohim
+--------------------------+
Sat Oct 21 02:16:33 UTC 2006
system/apcupsd: Added the --enable-powerflute flag to configure. Thanks to
elohim for pointing this out; I've gone all this time without noticing it.
While I was editing it already, I took the liberty of doing a few other
miscellaneous script cleanups. --robw810
+--------------------------+
Thu Oct 19 21:02:41 UTC 2006

multimedia/mp3blaster: Updated to version 3.2.3. Thanks to dadexter.
network/muttng: Updated the script to automatically detect the VERSION
string from the latest snapshot. Thanks to dadexter.
+--------------------------+
Sat Oct 14 16:40:12 UTC 2006
office/openoffice.org: Added a patch to fix the Exec paths given in the
.desktop files to work around the Xfce bug mentioned below. This should
not change anything with respect to other window managers. --robw810
+--------------------------+
Sat Oct 14 01:20:20 UTC 2006
This is an 'information-only' update related to OpenOffice.org. After
further investigation, it seems as if the problem mentioned below is
only present in Xfce 4.4 development versions - it works fine in kde
and gnome, as well as xfce 4.2.x. Of course, it could turn out to be
completely unrelated, but for now, see this for more information:
http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2430 --robw810
+--------------------------+
Fri Oct 13 05:39:06 UTC 2006
office/openoffice.org: Updated to version 2.0.4. There is one bug in
the resulting package - the menu entries created do not start the
individual office component that they're supposed to call; instead,
they start the plain office 'shell' - manually running the Exec lines
in the .desktop files from an xterm results in correct behavior, so
I'm uncertain as to what the problem may be. Under normal conditions,
this wouldn't have been upgraded due to the bug, but it's just now come
to my attention (thanks to MagicMan), and it was present in the builds
from the older script as well, so we may as well get this out there so
that more eyes can have a look at it. If you happen to find a solution
before we do, please post a message to slackbuilds-users[at]slackbuilds.org.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Thu Oct 12 15:05:51 UTC 2006

Wed Oct 11 19:28:22 UTC 2006
network/openntpd: Added - OpenNTPD is the network time protocol server/client
developed and maintained by the OpenBSD project. It is intended as a
replacement for the stock Slackware ntp package. Be sure to read the README
file for important information about adding the _ntp user and group; we're
looking at some better code to handle this, but it's not ready yet.
--PiterPunk/robw810
+--------------------------+
Wed Oct 11 18:23:56 UTC 2006
development/check: Added - check is a unit test framework for C. Thanks
to Jules Villard.

Thanks to The-spiki for the heads-up on the new release.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Wed Oct 11 13:55:36 UTC 2006
academic/chemtool: Fixed a typo in the chemtool.desktop file and cleaned up
the script a bit.
desktop/slim: Updated for version 1.2.5. Thanks to dadexter.
development/cmake: Added - an extensible, open-source system that manages
the build process in an operating system and compiler independent
manner. Thanks to Motoko-chan.
development/libcap: fixed a typo in the build script.

libcap, cmake, and zisofs-tools. Thanks to Motoko-chan.
system/cpufreqd: Added - similar to the speedstep applet; used for
monitoring cpu usage, battery level, AC state, and cpu frequency.
This requires the cpufrequtils package.
system/zisofs-tools: Added - these are the user tools for zisofs (mkzftree
and mkisofs) which are bundled with cdrtools, but are split out for
cdrkit.
--robw810

Mon Oct 2 04:03:17 UTC 2006
libraries/cpufrequtils: Added - cpufrequtils is a unified access method
for userspace tools and programs to the cpufreq core and drivers in the
Linux kernel.
multimedia/mplayer-codecs-all: Updated to version 20060611.
multimedia/MPlayer: changed the default path of the codecs back to
/usr/lib/codecs - this is configurable in the script, and we're going
to assume that anyone building MPlayer from here has also built the
codecs from here. On that note, the README was also edited to reflect
that the codecs don't actually have to be installed - so long as the
directory is specified in the configure, support for them will be built.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Sun Oct 1 23:42:25 UTC 2006
multimedia/MPlayer: fixed bad path in doinst.sh script; thanks to Dasajev.
Changed the default codecs path to /usr/local/lib/codecs, which is what
it would be if the user follows the instructions at MPlayer's site - this
is still configurable in the script in case the user has installed them
with our SlackBuild script. Changed the method for gzipping manpages
(added detection of symlinks); thanks to Eric Hameleers.
misc/wine: Changed manpage detection/gzipping; added mandir=/usr/man to
the configure command. Added better permissions checking in the extracted
source. Added support for OpenGL acceleration. Thanks to Eric Hameleers.
graphics/gqview: Better permissions checking; better manpage compression.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Mon Sep 25 14:21:00 UTC 2006
This one hasn't been explained yet, but we somehow lost three of our scripts
in the recent work on the site, and we just caught the mistake today.
Luckily, elohim had backups... :) --robw810
development/nano: Added.
multimedia/MPlayer: Added.
network/msmtp: Added.
+--------------------------+
Fri Sep 22 21:20:45 UTC 2006
We're mostly finished with the cosmetic changes mentioned below, and some
of them required some changes to the README requirements. All things
considered, this should make things easier on submitters, as the app's
home page, download location, and md5sum only have to be put into one
file now, and the README is just for, well, READING purposes. Anyway,
make sure you have a look at http://slackbuilds.org/guidelines/ before
entering any new submissions.
Maybe we can get back to the fun stuff now (like adding new stuff to the
repository). :) --robw810
+--------------------------+
Thu Sep 21 05:21:52 UTC 2006
Okay, I think we've got everything back to normal (whatever that means) :)
There are some more cosmetic changes coming to the public portion of the
site, and some of them should also improve the usability side of things
too. One major change that's been requested is the ability to download
a tarball of an application's entire directory, and that's now available.
We're still working on quite a few things in the site backend, but most
of that will be transparent to the public (or at least that's what we
hope to be the case). Anyway, thanks for your patience with us, and
happy Slackin' :-)
misc/wine: Updated to wine-0.9.21. Added semi-official patches for both
nvidia cards and ati cards that still need one; please read the comments
in the SlackBuild script.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Fri Sep 15 05:34:15 UTC 2006
We're doing some 'behind the scenes' work on the site backend, so the
repo is currently offline. If all goes well, it will be back up in
24-48 hours. Sorry for the downtime. --robw810
+--------------------------+
Tue Sep 12 13:10:48 UTC 2006
network/rdesktop: Removed - this is now part of the official Slackware
package set. --robw810
+--------------------------+
Sun Sep 10 18:15:50 UTC 2006
desktop/slim: Fixed - config files are no longer clobbered on upgrade.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Fri Sep 8 15:10:12 UTC 2006
network/openntpd: Removed. There are a few issues with this I need to
work out, so it will be back sooner or later.
office/openoffice.org: Fixed a few issues. This no longer includes any
custom *.desktop files; instead, we use the ones included in the original
binaries. Also, we no longer add/replace/modify /etc/mailcap or
/etc/mime.types on the system - this was badly broken behavior that should
not have slipped by earlier.
development/cpan2tgz: Added. cpan2tgz is an app to make Slackware packages
from perl modules.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Thu Sep 7 12:27:43 EDT 2006
network/rdesktop: Fixed problem in the SlackBuild. I have no idea how this
slipped through the cracks. An if-else statement wasn't closed, causing
bash to fail to execute pretty much anything in this script.
--Alan Hicks
+--------------------------+
Sun Sep 3 03:40:37 UTC 2006
network/snownews: Added. Snownews is a text mode RSS/RDF newsreader.
network/LimeWire: Updated to version 4.12.6 and fixed some oversights
from the last version bump.

+--------------------------+
Tue Aug 29 15:07:10 UTC 2006
development/lua: Added lua, a free software light-weight
programming language designed for extending applications.
libraries/libinklevel: Added libinklevel, a library to check
printer ink levels. Required by ink.
multimedia/kaffeine: Added kaffeine, a full featured Multimedia-
Player for KDE.
network/arptables: Added arptables, an administration tool for arp
packet filtering.
system/ink: Added ink, a command line tool for checking the ink
level of your printer on a system which runs Linux. It makes use
of libinklevel.
--elohim
+--------------------------+
Thu Aug 24 22:06:29 UTC 2006
system/ulogd: added ulogd man page and logrotate script to the
package. The logrotate script will install as a .new script
into /etc/logrotate.d/, as many people will need to edit it
for custom logfile names, and we don't want to clobber the
custom version on upgrade.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Wed Aug 23 06:09:15 UTC 2006
multimedia/mpd: Added. Music Player Daemon allows remote access for
both playing music and editing playlists.
system/apcupsd: Upgraded to apcupsd 3.12.4
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Tue Aug 22 20:45:26 UTC 2006
multimedia/MPlayer: added a doinst.sh file to the package to prevent
clobbering of the existing /etc/mplayer.conf file on upgrade.
Also, I'm in the process of modifying all of the current repository
to separate the BUILD and TAG variables (BUILD=1 TAG=_SBo), as well
as a few other minor issues not worth mentioning here (yes, I'm
being pedantic) :)
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Tue Aug 22 14:48:38 UTC 2006
system/aterm: Upgraded to aterm-1.0.0 and cleaned up the script some.

to Midnight Commander.
system/xbindkeys: Added - xbindkeys is a program that allows you to
launch shell commands with your keyboard or mouse under X Windows
--robw810/elohim on both
+--------------------------+
Mon Aug 14 22:54:15 UTC 2006
system/ulogd: Fixed two major problems in the script -
/usr/local/lib is no longer used (no, I don't know how I missed
that), and existing config files are no longer clobbered.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Mon Aug 14 05:36:31 UTC 2006
system/arp-scan: Added - ARP scanning and fingerprinting tool
desktop/icewm: Updated for version 1.2.27, and many changes to
improve the original script.
--robw810/elohim
+--------------------------+
Mon Aug 14 04:53:05 UTC 2006
system/apcupsd: Fixed the script to prevent overwriting of files
in /etc/apcupsd/ during an upgrade; doinst.sh now checks for
for differences and installs them as *.new if they're not identical.
The same applies for /etc/rc.d/rc.apcupsd.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Mon Aug 14 03:31:00 UTC 2006
network/LimeWire: Updated to version 4.12.4
network/muttng: Added. mutt "next generation" is a fork of the mutt
email client.
--robw810/elohim
+--------------------------+
Thu Aug 10 23:50:06 UTC 2006
system/hplip: Removed. This is a temporary removal until I can work
out a better way to do a few things - I'm not at all happy with
any package creating *.new files that are normally considered part
of other packages, *especially* not sysvinit.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Wed Aug 9 18:02:52 UTC 2006
system/apcupsd: Modified to use --sbindir=/sbin instead of /usr/sbin,
as some systems with /usr on a separate partition might not poweroff
completely after halt if /usr is unmounted first.
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Tue Aug 8 20:40:32 UTC 2006
network/heimdal: Added - a free Kerberos implementation,
mostly compatible to MIT Kerberos.
--alien
+--------------------------+
Mon Aug 7 23:12:46 UTC 2006
Anonymous FTP access to the repository is now available via
ftp://ftp.slackbuilds.org - this is a feature that got several
requests, and it should make for easier downloading via wget's
recursive feature :)
libraries/libcap: Added - a library for getting and setting POSIX.1e
(formerly POSIX 6) draft 15 capabilities
+--------------------------+
Mon Aug 7 13:23:12 UTC 2006

--robw810/alien
+--------------------------+
Sun Aug 6 22:17:53 UTC 2006
misc/wine: Updated the build script to 0.9.18, and also replaced
the WOW patch with one for the new version. According to the
developers maintaining the WOW patches, they're no longer
necessary for some ATI cards.
libraries/freealut: Added - freealut is a free implementation of
OpenAL's ALUT standard; it requires OpenAL (obviously), which
is also available here.

units. I've implemented some better fixes for apcupsd's broken
behavior of writing outside DESTDIR during the build process.

network/msmtp: Added msmtp, a simple smtp client
--robw810
+--------------------------+
Mon Jul 31 20:19:11 UTC 2006
system/aterm: Added aterm, a terminal emulator
system/apcupsd: Removed. This is temporary until I fix a few things to
better work around the broken slackware-specific installation by
apcupsd's source. I've got some patches that I've submitted to the
apcupsd developers, but I want to ensure that they work properly before
committing them here.

Tue Jul 18 23:33:18 UTC 2006
office/acroread: fixed a problem where the symlink for AdobeReader.png
in /usr/share/pixmaps was incorrect. The reason for the frequent
problems with symlinks is due to the fact that Adobe Reader expects
