slackpg install-new
at first. Also be sure that you configure for DOWNLOAD_ALL=on in /etc/slackpkg/slackpkg.conf

Problem is that gnutls, p11 and nettle have to be upgraded/installed in order to get the upgraded version of wget running. On my server where DOWNLOAD_ALL=on is configured the "slackpkg upgrade-all" went well, but since wget was broken I could not run "slackpkg install-new".

I had to rebuild google-chrome.

USB was no longer working until I rebooted the system.

slackpkg install-new is always recommended to be executed before upgrade-all as new packages may be introduced
even if the order is correct, we still need to download wget manually first because it will install like the following:
- nettle (install-new)
- p11 (install-new)
- gnutls (upgrade-all) <- wget is now broken due to changes in gnutls
- wget (upgradepkg manually)

about USB, i didn't test before reboot, so i didn't aware of it

yes
that's a good reason to buy beer

BroX 07-14-2012 06:24 AM

oh my, the dilemma... get some work done this weekend, or upgrade with the risk to break stuff and spend the rest of the day fixing things while having a beer ;)

Now syncing...

Thanks Slack team! :hattip:

I installed -current in VBox on wednesday, thought it was about time I had another go at it. And then this happens. :)
Might need something considerably stronger than beer...

Thanks to willysr and markush - I had a very uneventful upgrade. I do have 3 dead links to delete, but I'm gonna be sure before I delete them. For the moment, everything seems just fine! That said, I am only about 4 minutes running..... hehehe!

mlangdn 07-14-2012 08:27 AM

I get the feeling I am about to screw up.

Code:

ldconfig: /usr/lib64/libnssutil3.so is not a symbolic link

ldconfig: /usr/lib64/libnspr4.so is not a symbolic link

ldconfig: /usr/lib64/libplc4.so is not a symbolic link

These are not dead links, and they are also present in /usr/lib64/seamonkey-2.10.1
Something didn't go right, but it does not seem to be a problem yet. Got more lookin' to do.

Here another question regarding p11-kit for slackware-current 32bit.

It is in the changelogs but on both mirrors I use (for my slackware-32bit laptop) I cannot seem to find the package ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/slackwar...t/slackware/n/ and ftp://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen...t/slackware/n/. Maybe I am confused here, but I built p11-kit with the slackbuilscript from source and installed it, but when I ran "slackpkg clean-system" it wanted to remove p11-kit. p11-kit is necessary for wget to run.

For my slackware64 computers the package was no problem.

clementine segfaults
 
:(
Code:

$ clementine --verbose
Segmentation fault

Recompiling didn't produce any errors, and all libraries are found. Tried moving the config and rc files in ~/ away, but alas.

Amarok plays fine though.

Does anyone know how to get more debug info? The segfault message is all I get.

edit: maybe I should add that this is after today's update

Had a problem with the text consoles on this upgrade.

agetty would not start on boot.

Turns out agetty does not like the new --noclear option in the /etc/inittab. Going back to my inittab.old fixed the problem.

--noclear is an option in mingetty, I wonder if upstream has gone and changed things without checking.

If I were to do upgrade-all before install-new how would I then fix my system? Seems like I broke something...

You've probably broken wget. wget needs the following packages to be installed/upgraded before wget is upgraded: p11-kit, nettle and gnutls!

You can download this packages from the mirror and install with installpkg or upgradepkg respectively.

Which section of the mirror would I find the package in? I've been trying to find it and haven't located it yet. Thanks for your help. It is appreciated.

markush 07-14-2012 09:47 AM

Well, if you're running current-32bit, the p11-kit packages is missing, you'll find it in sources/n/ the others are located in the n series.
If you need p11-kit, you need the sourcpackage and the slackbuildscript, both in the same directory, then make the slackbuildscript executable and run it, you'll find the package in /tmp (this is only necessary for 32bit).
