This is Slackware 14.0 release candidate 3, and is hopefully the last stop on our long road to a stable Slackware release soon. After hearing that the 3.4.x kernel series will have long term support, I tested 3.4.9 hoping that it would prove stable enough to use that as the release kernel, but there are problems with an oops in kernel/time/clocksource.c every few boots. Given that the 3.2.x series has been very stable, it seems prudent to stick with that for release, and 3.2.28 is going to be the release kernel. So, one more round of testing. Let me know if there are any problems. Thanks! a/aaa_base-14.0-x86_64-5.txz: Rebuilt. Added /etc/os-release. Touched /etc/slackware-version to bring the datestamp closer to release. a/btrfs-progs-20120821-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. There haven't been any changes in git since the last pull, but this package needed a rebuild anyway to get rid of the warnings in the slack-desc that are no longer applicable.

n/wireless-tools-29-x86_64-8.txz: Rebuilt. Fix comparison where a network interface is not wireless. Thu Aug 9 22:34:59 UTC 2012 Good hello, and happy Thursday! Mercury went direct early yesterday morning, and it was like the bugs started to fix themselves. It's almost enough to get me believing in that hocus-pocus nonsense! So, here's a bunch of updates that fix all of the reported issues in the beta, and we'll call this the 14.0 release candidate 1. Still some updates needed for the top-level documentation files, but we're clearly in the home stretch now (finally). Test away, and report any remaining bugs! a/aaa_base-14.0-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.

l/boost-1.49.0-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt. Linked against icu4c. The built script was also upgraded to account for changes in the way boost is configured, and to only build the parts needed. Thanks to Heinz Wiesinger. l/glib2-2.32.4-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. l/gnome-keyring-3.4.1-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Fixed improper password/passphrase caching. For more information, see: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681081 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-3466 (* Security fix *) l/gtk+3-3.4.4-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. l/polkit-0.105-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Added default policy files for udisks2 and NetworkManager events. These along with GazL's xinitrc/startup script improvements seem to prevent ConsoleKit, PolicyKit, and D-Bus from being stupid most of the time. GazL's fix _should_ have been enough, but you know what they say about the difference between theory and practice. :-) The NetworkManager .pkla file seems to be needed anyway to allow users in the netdev group to modify network settings without being bothered to enter the root password. Thanks much to Chess Griffin. l/qt-4.8.2-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Patched libQtWebKit.la and QtWebKit.pc to remove a false dependency on libwebcore.a, which is used internally at build time. Thanks to Fridrich von Stauffenberg and Eric Hameleers. l/raptor2-2.0.8-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. Thanks to Heinz Wiesinger. l/vte-0.28.2-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Patched to fix high CPU usage that can be triggered by escape sequences. Thanks to Mancha. n/ModemManager-0.5.2.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. n/network-scripts-14.00-noarch-2.txz: Rebuilt. Patched rc.inet1 to handle slightly changed ifconfig output. Thanks to Darrell Anderson. n/openssl-1.0.1c-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt. Patched the certwatch script to quit warning about expired certificates in /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt. The script was intended to warn when your personal certificates are about to expire, but it trips over this one that bundles the CA certs. Thanks to ponce. n/php-5.4.5-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Added support for intl module. Thanks to Heinz Wiesinger. n/wireless-tools-29-x86_64-7.txz: Rebuilt. Don't use the directory /sys/class/netdev_name/wireless/ directory to detect wireless cards in rc.wireless as it depends on CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS=y in the kernel, which is deprecated and will be removed in future kernels. Perhaps this was the cause of some of the reports of non-functional wireless interfaces? Thanks to Konrad Rzepecki. x/x11-skel-7.7-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. In xwmconfig, write a $HOME/.xsession in addition to $HOME/.xinitrc, allowing users to choose a default window manager when using XDM. Thanks to GazL. x/xterm-281-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. Thanks to Robby Workman. xap/blackbox-0.70.1-x86_64-7.txz: Rebuilt. Created a new startup script "startblackbox" called from xinitrc.blackbox to allow running dbus-launch within ck-session-launch. This fixes Thunar device mounting without breaking XDM. Thanks much to GazL! xap/fluxbox-1.3.2-x86_64-4.txz: Rebuilt. Start dbus-launch in startfluxbox. Thanks to GazL. xap/fvwm-2.6.5-x86_64-4.txz: Rebuilt. Created a new startup script "startfvwm2" called from xinitrc.fvwm2 to allow running dbus-launch within ck-session-launch. Thanks to GazL. xfce/xfce4-weather-plugin-0.8.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. extra/wicd/wicd-1.7.2.4-x86_64-4.txz: Rebuilt. Fixed some slightly incorrect permissions. isolinux/initrd.img: Rebuilt. Upgraded to Linux kernel 3.2.26. Replaced gptfdisk utilities with the rebuilt versions. Added MMC support to /sbin/probe. Thanks to David Spencer. usb-and-pxe-installers/usbboot.img: Rebuilt. Upgraded to Linux kernel 3.2.26. Replaced gptfdisk utilities with the rebuilt versions. Added MMC support to /sbin/probe. Thanks to David Spencer.

This fixes out-of-bounds memory write bugs that could lead to crashes or the execution of arbitrary code, and a memory leak bug which could lead to application crashes. For more information, see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-1205 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-2249 (* Security fix *) l/libtiff-3.9.4-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. This fixes image structure handling bugs that could lead to crashes or execution of arbitrary code if a specially-crafted TIFF image is loaded. For more information, see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-1411 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-2065 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-2067 (* Security fix *) +--------------------------+ Sun Jun 27 17:25:18 UTC 2010 xap/mozilla-firefox-3.6.6-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. This changes the crash protection feature to increase the timeout before a plugin is considered non-responsive. +--------------------------+ Sun Jun 27 03:43:13 UTC 2010 ap/ghostscript-8.71-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt. Merged an upstream patch from Till Kamppeter to fix printing black pages with CUPS and certain printers. +--------------------------+ Fri Jun 25 05:28:02 UTC 2010 a/cups-1.4.4-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. Fixed a memory allocation error in texttops. Fixed a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) that could allow a remote attacker to reconfigure or disable CUPS if a CUPS admin logged into the web interface visited a specially-crafted website. Fixed a bug where uninitialized memory from the cupsd process could reveal sensitive information. For more information, see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-0540 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-0542 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-1748 (* Security fix *) d/ccache-3.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. d/gdb-7.1-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Added --with-python=no to fix errors about missing backtrace.py, which is not yet in stable glib. Thanks to David Woodfall. l/imlib-1.9.15-x86_64-7.txz: Rebuilt. This fixes problems linking with libpng. l/seamonkey-solibs-2.0.5-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. n/bind-9.7.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. This fixes possible DNS cache poisoning attacks when DNSSEC is enabled and checking is disabled (CD). For more information, see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-4022 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-0097 (* Security fix *) Thanks to Rob McGee for help with the upgrade to BIND 9.7.x. xap/mozilla-firefox-3.6.4-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. This fixes some security issues. For more information, see: http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox36.html (* Security fix *) xap/mozilla-thunderbird-3.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.

Thanks to mancha. +--------------------------+ Fri Jun 18 18:12:04 UTC 2010 ap/alsa-utils-1.0.23-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Patched alsaconf to generate /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf. Thanks to Alan Hicks. kde/kdebase-workspace-4.4.3-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Patched xinitrc.kde to launch with ck-launch-session only if the DESKTOP_SESSION variable is empty. This fixes a bug where a ck-aware login manager such as KDM may have already launched a ConsoleKit session, causing the xinitrc to launch another one and marking the first one inactive. This can lead to auth failures. Thanks to Robby Workman. n/samba-3.5.3-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. xap/xfce-4.6.1-x86_64-9.txz: Rebuilt.
