lvm2 - rebuild.
dmeventd wants to create its fifos in /var/run. But when /var is a separate partition, dmeventd will not start.
May I humbly request that lvm2 be rebuild with the following parameter: Code:
--with-default-dm-run-dir=/run/lvm \ Code:
--- rc.S.old 2014-11-29 10:42:00.912305356 +0700 Thank you. |
Here's one good one:
procps-3.2.8 > procps-ng-3.3.10 Procps hasn't been developed on in a few years. Procps-ng is now the focus. The newer version will have to probably be packaged separate from psmisc, but here's the build instructions for a SlackBuild targeting procps-ng only... Code:
./configure --prefix=/usr \ No patches were required. |
whats up with kmod ?
i can't find a changelog anywhere, so idk |

gettext and gettext-tools packages can be upgraded to version 0.19.3. No change needed in the SlackBuilds beyond the VERSION. No issue to compile nor run that on a Slackware 14.1, I assume that stands for -current as well. The fixes and enhancements since 0.18.2.1 are worth the upgrade IMO (see relevant part of the NEWS file attached).

I do know the current version I've seen in rotation is kmod-19. https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/kmod/ I pulled this from the archive NEWS file: kmod 19 ======= - Bug fixes: - Fix missing CLOEXEC in library - Fix error message while opening kmod's index - New features: - Add kmod(8) man page - Allow to build with libc's without be32toh() - Move code around separating common code and data structures into a shared directory. This allows to share more code between library and tools, making the binary size of tools shorter. - Clarify tools vs library licenses - static-nodes: when writting in tmpfiles format, indicate that creation of static nodes should only happen at boot. This is used and required by systemd-217+. - Improvements to testsuite: - Add tests for newly created shared/ code - Improve how tests are declared so there's less boilerplate code for each test. |

well, at least it's not the other way around on that one (bdw, you can guess who committed that:)) dk, i upgraded, simple test seems fine, didn't reboot yet though |
It's just for systemd apparently.
