a/pkgtools-15.0-noarch-39.txz: Rebuilt.
upgradepkg: revert change where $ROOT/sbin/installpkg is called instead of
/sbin/installpkg. Conceptually, this seemed like a nice change (but would
have also required removepkg to be called the same way), but it seems to
break an established expectation that the pkgtools can be used without them
actually being installed in $ROOT. Thanks to alienBOB.
a/sysvinit-scripts-15.0-noarch-2.txz: Rebuilt.
Use #!/bin/bash for these scripts so that bashisms don't cause script issues
if /bin/sh is some other shell. Thanks to mumahendras3.
rc.S: Use GazL's proposals for detecting/mounting /proc and /sys.
d/parallel-20210422-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded.
l/glib-networking-2.68.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
l/gtk+3-3.24.29-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
x/igt-gpu-tools-1.26-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
isolinux/initrd.img: Rebuilt.
Rebuild with pkgtools-15.0-noarch-39.
usb-and-pxe-installers/usbboot.img: Rebuilt.
Rebuild with pkgtools-15.0-noarch-39.

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! :-)
