Hey folks, a little status update here. First, huge thanks are due to nobodino for helping to shake out packages that weren't building from source. With all those fixes in place (plus a few more), we have tested and found that everything in the tree compiles cleanly against glibc-2.32. So, the plan is to have another mass rebuild soon against that. Although the ABI didn't technically change, I've heard that libpthread may not be 100% compatible in some corner cases, so we'll err on the side of caution. Hopefully we can get a little testing done on the recompiled system and then go through it all again at the beginning of next month when glibc-2.33 is released. Other than that, how's Mesa working these days? If there are still issues that are resolved by dropping back to the previous branch, let's try to figure those out. I'd rather not revert Mesa unless there's no other choice. I'm hoping that the (probably unrelated) issues with Intel video hardware will be helped by today's xorg-server patch that uses the modesetting driver with newer chipsets. Please report any improvement on the LQ thread. Beta approaches. :-) a/sysklogd-2.2.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/distcc-3.3.5-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Properly install distccmon-gnome.desktop.

This is the source used for Slackware. To look for a particular bit of source (let's say for 'cp'), first you would look for the full path: fuzzy:~# which cp /bin/cp Then, you grep for the package it came from. Note that the leading '/' is removed: fuzzy:~# grep bin/cp /var/log/packages/* /var/log/packages/cpio-2.4.2.91-i386-1:bin/cpio /var/log/packages/fileutils-4.1-i386-2:bin/cp /var/log/packages/gcc-2.95.3-i386-2:usr/bin/cpp /var/log/packages/gnome-applets-1.4.0.5-i386-1:usr/bin/cpumemusage_applet From this, you can see that 'cp' came from the fileutils-4.1-i386-2 package. The source will be found in a corresponding subdirectory. In this case, that would be ./a/bin. Don't be fooled into thinking that the _bin.tar.gz in this directory is the package with the source code -- anything starting with '_' is just a framework package full of empty files with the correct permissions and ownerships for the completed package to use. Many of these packages now have scripts that untar, patch, and compile the source automatically. These are the 'SlackBuild' scripts. Moving back to the example above, you can figure out which package the bin/cp source came from by examining the SlackBuild script. Have fun! --- Patrick J. Volkerding volkerdi@slackware.com
