This package has not been a security fix since NSS 3.23, so we'll drop it
back to the previous version to work around an SSL handshake failure when
attempting to connect to talk.google.com with pidgin. Once this issue has
been addressed upstream we'll look into bumping the package again.
Thanks to Jefferson for the bug report.

l/glibc-2.30-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt.
Rebuilt without the --enable-obsolete-nsl and --enable-obsolete-rpc options.
This change has been somewhat overdue, but since glibc was providing these
options we just continued to use them here - however, newer versions of
glibc have dropped this code entirely and it is expected to be provided in
standalone packages. So we'll do that to make things easier moving forward.
Please note that libnss_nisplus has been unmaintained upstream for quite
some time, is considered obsolete, and no longer compiles. As a result it
will no longer be provided... but there are better options these days.

Slackware 14.2 x86_64 stable is released!
The long development cycle (the Linux community has lately been living in
"interesting times", as they say) is finally behind us, and we're proud to
announce the release of Slackware 14.2. The new release brings many updates
and modern tools, has switched from udev to eudev (no systemd), and adds
well over a hundred new packages to the system. Thanks to the team, the
upstream developers, the dedicated Slackware community, and everyone else
who pitched in to help make this release a reality.
The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided
32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. Please consider supporting the Slackware
project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com. We're taking
pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription.
Have fun! :-)
