a/elogind-243.7-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt.
Moved default udev rules to /lib/udev/rules.d/. Thanks to Robby Workman.
Added /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/10-enable-session-power.rules.
a/glibc-zoneinfo-2020d-noarch-2.txz: Rebuilt.
Make /etc/localtime a symlink pointing into /usr/share/zoneinfo. If you
have /usr on a separate partition, this might cause time problems prior
to /usr being mounted (I recommend *not* making /usr a separate partition).
But if you insist for some reason, you can probably work around it by
adding the pointed-to directory and timezone file to your empty pre-mounted
/usr directory.
a/upower-0.99.11-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt.
Added /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/10-enable-upower-suspend.rules.

Moved 10-enable-session-power.rules to the elogind package.
Moved 10-enable-upower-suspend.rules to the upower package.

existing config file if you've set any options, and then clear out
the old location of $HOME/.ccache to avoid wasting storage space.

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! :-)
