Slackware-current (aug) upgrade to slackware 13?

jensklas · 08-28-2009, 03:33 AM

I use Slackware-current (aug). And wonder if i get the "real" slackware 13 if i run slackpkg upgrade-all?

Yes, then just change your release to 13.0 stable. (You might need to wait to change it, due to some mirrors not having the 13.0 directory tree completely set up)

I can't find any mirror that has the 13.0 directory tree yet. D:

If you're using slackpkg, just change your mirror from current to 13 and you'll be ready for when they catch up.
Oops, bassmadrigal already said it.

Code:

cat /etc/slackware-version

After I ran upgrade-all this morning, the version is still 13.0.0.0

I rebooted afterwards.

brianL · 08-28-2009, 07:43 AM

Mine's 13.0.0.0.0. Have you missed a zero, or have I got an extra one?

mlangdn · 08-28-2009, 07:45 AM

I probably missed a zero. May have been a dead cat layin' on it.

bassmadrigal · 08-28-2009, 07:46 AM

The /etc/slackware-version has shown 13.0 since this update:

Code:

Tue Aug 11 01:04:25 CDT 2009
a/etc-13.0-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded.
       Added root to power, netdev, and scanner groups in /etc/group.

Maybe I should change my LQ username to "CatGutter".

The same thing.
