  Fixes security issues:
  A specially crafted PostScript file could have access to the file system
  outside of the constrains imposed by -dSAFER.
  Transient procedures can allow access to system operators, leading to
  remote code execution.

a/sysvinit-scripts-2.1-noarch-20.txz:  Rebuilt.
  rc.6: it was reported by birdboy that JFS is not properly unmounted unless
  the order of unmounting local filesystems followed by remounting the root
  filesystem read-only is inverted. I tried that, and although it did get rid
  of a "/ filesystem is busy" error during shutdown, the JFS / filesystem was
  still checked at boot (and found to be clean). I believe that the existing
  order of unmounting non-root filesystems followed by remounting the root
  filesystem as read-only is the correct order, and found that putting
  another sync between these also gets rid of the error on shutdown, so I've
  done that. When using JFS as the root filesystem there's still another
  similar error message that's generated earlier in the boot, though. I'm
  unable to find any way to shut down a JFS root partition in a way that
  leaves it clean enough that fsck will not check it at boot, but it is always
  found to be clean so this should only be cosmetic. I recall this behavior of
  JFS going all the way back to when it was first added to the kernel. If
  anyone has a better fix, I'll take a look at it, but in my opinion it's not
  really anything to worry about.
ap/ghostscript-9.25-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
  This release fixes problems with argument handling, some unintended
  results of the security fixes to the SAFER file access restrictions
  (specifically accessing ICC profile files), and some additional
  security issues over the recent 9.24 release.

isolinux/initrd.img:  Rebuilt.
  Use the ter-114v terminus font. It has been reported that the font we were
  using (ter-v14v) restricts the available console colors from 16 to 8 due
  to needing an extra bit for the higher number of available glyphs (though
  in testing here I couldn't see any difference). The new font covers
  ISO8859-1, ISO8859-15, and Windows-1252 codepages. I'm still not sure it's
  the best choice, so additional input is welcomed.
  Thanks to bormant.
usb-and-pxe-installers/usbboot.img:  Rebuilt.

a/tar-1.30-x86_64-3.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Fixed a bug in the nolonezero patch that was evidently causing all of the

  Thanks *very* much to NonNonBa for the patch, and to SeB for the initial
  analysis of the problem.

  Thanks to SeB.
a/sysvinit-2.90-x86_64-2.txz:  Rebuilt.
  sysvinit-2.90 added an undocumented feature that tries to spawn agetty
  if it sees console= in the kernel command line. Avoiding the debate about
  whether this code belongs in init at all, at least such a change should
  be documented, and probably made opt-in. This patch disables the new
  behavior unless "sysvinit_agetty" is also seen in the kernel command line.
  It seems like this might have been something added for Hurd, and it might
  be wise to stick to what we've got rather than following upstream on this
  particular package. If anyone notices any other odd behavior, please let
  me know. Thanks to shastah.
a/sysvinit-scripts-2.1-noarch-19.txz:  Rebuilt.

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!  :-)

Slackware 14.0 x86_64 stable is released!

We're perfectionists here at Slackware, so this release has been a long
time a-brewing.  But we think you'll agree that it was worth the wait.
Slackware 14.0 combines modern components, ease of use, and flexible
configuration... our "KISS" philosophy demands it.

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.

Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen.  The Slackware team, the
upstream developers, and (of course) the awesome Slackware user
community.

Have fun!  :-)
