I just installed Slack current, (2nd Slack OS), and seen EasyTag in here, nice, but if it was to make the cut, then I'd cut it and install puddle tag to replace it. Just like I do with Calligra, I remove it, and add Libreoffice. so that is my :twocents: , thus far. as I just got this updated to current and am still in the process of post install configuration configuring. :D

Please have a look at setup.11.cacerts script from the ca-certificates package. Run the script without ignoring the output:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

#BLURB="Rebuild SSL certificate database."

chroot . usr/sbin/update-ca-certificates --fresh  # 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null

This will give you the following output:

Code:

Unknown regexp modifier "/W" at /usr/bin/c_rehash line 28, at end of line

Unknown regexp modifier "/3" at /usr/bin/c_rehash line 28, at end of line

Unknown regexp modifier "/2" at /usr/bin/c_rehash line 28, at end of line

No such class installdir at /usr/bin/c_rehash line 63, near "Prefix our installdir"

  (Might be a runaway multi-line // string starting on line 28)

syntax error at /usr/bin/c_rehash line 63, near "Prefix our installdir"

Can't redeclare "my" in "my" at /usr/bin/c_rehash line 68, near "my"

Execution of /usr/bin/c_rehash aborted due to compilation errors.

This will end up in not creating the /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt which will make glib-networking fail to compile because of not finding the ca-certificates. If you run the setup script without the --fresh option everything is fine.

P.S. Looks like an issue with c_rehash script from the new openssl 1.1 package. If you run the script from the previous package you will not get the above error.

The texlive package creates some broken symbolic links in /usr/bin:

Code:

/usr/bin/texosquery-jre5

/usr/bin/latex2nemeth

/usr/bin/lily-glyph-commands

/usr/bin/arara

/usr/bin/texosquery

/usr/bin/texosquery-jre8

/usr/bin/lily-image-commands

/usr/bin/lily-rebuild-pdfs

this patch seems to fix the above behaviour (found it here)

Thanks! According to the patch you provided these two lines are causing all the trouble because of missing " around paths using /:

I just added " around these two paths and all is fine now.

For eficonfig to ask me if I want to replace my elilo.conf file.

I think that Rich rather just wants to be able to run eliloconfig without loosing the customization he made in elilo.conf, still letting eliloconfig copy the new kernel and possibly initrd in the ESP, as he stated in this post. Nothing fancy, just asking "do you want to keep your existing eliloconfig or replace it?" case occurring (and he probably uses slapt-get rather than slackpkg).

Didier is correct, that's my request for -current.

This is fixed for the next texlive package.
Although texlive 2018 was released a few weeks ago, there are still some important bugfixes in the works by upstream, so it will take some more time until it can be submitted to Pat.

Hi , some weeks ffmpeg-4.0 is out.

Now finally archlinux put as the default version , this is cause all the nedded patches are out now.

Can upgrade now to ffmpeg-4.0 ?

Thanks !
