Since glibc-2.34 makes a potentially risky change of moving all functions
into the main library, and another inconvenient (for us) change of renaming
the library files, we'll stick with glibc-2.33 for Slackware 15.0 and test
the newer glibc in the next release cycle. But we'll backport the security
fixes from glibc-2.34 with this update:
The nameserver caching daemon (nscd), when processing a request for netgroup
lookup, may crash due to a double-free, potentially resulting in degraded
service or Denial of Service on the local system. Reported by Chris Schanzle.
The mq_notify function has a potential use-after-free issue when using a
notification type of SIGEV_THREAD and a thread attribute with a non-default
affinity mask.
The wordexp function may overflow the positional parameter number when
processing the expansion resulting in a crash. Reported by Philippe Antoine.

Hey folks! Sorry about the delay in getting this batch out but I had other
distractions going on here last week that prevented getting this one wrapped
up. Anyway, probably the highlight of this update set is that we've decided
to abandon the 5.10 LTS kernel in favor of following the latest one. We've
never really had a policy that required LTS in a stable release although that
is how it has been done for years, but based on comments from the Slackware
community it seems like 5.10 LTS isn't getting a lot of love and lacks
hardware support that people need now. Conversely, the reports on 5.12 have
been almost entirely positive, so we're going to provide what we think is the
best available kernel. It's unlikely that we'll see another LTS prior to
release, so the plan for maintenance is to keep following the latest kernels
as needed for security purposes. If that means we have to jump to a new branch
while supporting the stable release, we'll start the kernel out in testing
first until we've had some feedback that it's safe to move it to the patches
directory. Sooner or later we will end up on an LTS kernel again, and at that
point we'll just roll with that one. Feel free to comment (or complain) about
this plan on LQ... I'll be curious to see what people think. Anyway, enjoy!

rc.wireless: don't leave interfaces in up state as it prevents SLAAC.
Take interface down at exit from rc.wireless. Thanks to davjohn.

Rebuilt with -proprietary-codecs and -webengine-proprietary-codecs. When
combined with -webengine-ffmpeg (use system ffmpeg), this doesn't actually
build any proprietary codecs, but allows them to be used if they happen to
be built into the system ffmpeg. Thanks to alienBOB.
xap/mozilla-firefox-86.0.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
When we first moved Slackware to the Firefox ESR channel, the motivation
was to keep Firefox secure while delaying a requirement for Rust at build
time. Of course, eventually that ESR version reached EOL and we had to
introduce Rust into Slackware 14.2 in order to continue providing updates.
Eventually that also ran into roadblocks as Firefox required first newer
C/C++ compilers, and then finally a newer libstdc++. To continue, we'd
have had to bump GCC to a much newer version, making other maintenance
difficult or impossible. At this point, the latest Firefox has no additional
dependencies beyond those of the ESR version, and it's unlikely that it
will be any more difficult to keep it maintained. I think we all want the
Slackware 15.0 release to be as good as possible, and most users will be
better served if we resume following the latest desktop releases.
Thanks to LuckyCyborg who can always be counted on to give me a friendly
kick in the rear end. :-) Thanks also to ponce for the updated gkrust patch.

ap/hplip-3.20.5-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.
Switched to hplip-3.20.5 to fix regressions in the hp-plugin subsystem.
Patched to use is_alive() rather than the deprecated isAlive().
Thanks to Andypoo.
Newer versions than 3.20.6 require avahi. We'll stick with this version
for now and leave the decision about whether we love HP more than we hate
avahi for another day.

n/network-scripts-15.0-noarch-13.txz: Rebuilt.
Well, apparently there was a newer branch of this than the one that was
sitting in my usual pending queue, so here it is. This also includes some
additional documentation on the new features. NOTE: In order to use SLAAC
to configure IPv6, you'll need to have USE_SLAAC[x]="yes" for the interface
in rc.inet1.conf. This is to ensure that nobody is surprised to find their
machine fully exposed to the internet - better safe than sorry.
Thanks to Darren "Tadgy" Austin and Robby Workman.
