gcc 5.3 realeased BUG FIX RELEASE

https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-5/

Good, I felt a little alone

flex 2.6.0 is out
http://sourceforge.net/projects/flex/files/

I start to think that my wireless issue are due to Consolekit2 v.1.0.0 needing cgmanager when using gdm as the login manager.

The installed version of cgmanager in current is relatively old and doesn't have a init-script. More recent versions of cgmanager have an init-script. So could cgmanager be updated, to v.0.39?

The init script isn't going to necessarily fix it. Slackware doesn't use traditional sysv scripts but instead uses in-house bsd style scripts.

You could try OpenRC from SBo if you feel you need a script.

What the hell, man? Are you actually suggesting that someone replace the entire initialization system in an attempt to fix a wireless problem?
You know, it's perfectly acceptable to just not say anything if you don't have any good suggestions...

For the record, ConsoleKit will attempt to use cgmanager for the x11 session tracking, but if that fails, it falls back to the previous method (xdg session cookie). The cgmanager noise is exactly that.

I have a package for download built on Slackware64-current multilib. They are from ponce's testing repository
. If you need x86, you need to build it yourself. Its as simple as copying the files out of that directory and running the slackbuild script.

Here is cgmanager:
cgmanager-20151022_8123170-x86_64-1.txz

Init script (/etc/rc.d/rc.cgmanager) is included in it. You will need to patch /etc/rc.d/rc.S and rc.6 to use it I believe.

rcs.diff patch

Copy rc.S and rc.6 into a different directory, /tmp works. Then run

Then copy the new rc.{S,6} back into /etc/rc.d after backing up the originals (in case something goes amiss). cgmanager will be upgraded.

EDIT: Then reboot.

I've tried this, but unfortunately it doesn't fix my problem. Ponce is aware. Looks like the problem is with GDM itself. Now back on topic, i.e. requested updates for current.

btw) Still the original request stands, as the later versions of cgmanager have a proper Slackware startup script.

Actually, gdm is just a gas plant

Can you upgrade these softwares?

As libvpx was added to -Current, i suggest to add
Opus, to have both codecs for webm. mozilla-firefox could be built that way with system libvpx/opus for webm-support.
