a/kernel-generic-4.14.52-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
a/kernel-huge-4.14.52-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
a/kernel-modules-4.14.52-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
ap/sox-14.4.2-x86_64-6.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Rebuilt to drop libssp dependency. We're no longer building that with gcc
  since glibc already includes a built-in SSP implementation.
d/gcc-8.1.1-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
  Shared library .so-version bump.
  This is taken from the gcc-8-branch of the svn repo on 20180626, revision
  r262159. All packages have been tested for build failures and all new FTBFS
  issues are fixed - I think we're down to the six possibly obsolete X drivers
  (geode, r128, s3virge, savage, sis, and tseng) and virtuoso-ose.
d/gcc-brig-8.1.1-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
d/gcc-g++-8.1.1-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
d/gcc-gfortran-8.1.1-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.

d/gcc-go-8.1.1-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.

d/kernel-headers-4.14.52-x86-1.txz:  Upgraded.
d/libtool-2.4.6-x86_64-8.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Recompiled to update embedded GCC version number.
k/kernel-source-4.14.52-noarch-1.txz:  Upgraded.
l/db48-4.8.30-x86_64-4.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Patched to fix a symbol collision with gcc8.
n/netatalk-3.1.11-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
  Thanks to Matthew Schumacher for updating the build script and providing
  some useful config file examples.
extra/pure-alsa-system/sox-14.4.2-x86_64-6_alsa.txz:  Rebuilt.
isolinux/initrd.img:  Rebuilt.
kernels/*:  Upgraded.
usb-and-pxe-installers/usbboot.img:  Rebuilt.

README.TXT Slackware 14.0 2018-05-31 22:51:55 +02:00

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!
