Well, as reiser4 still didn't make its way in the Linux kernel and knowing that the latest version is a patch for 5.4.6, I'd rather leave it in SBo.
Yes ... its good , but only request someone ..cause if you go to the suported filesystems in gparted..at least 5 or 6 are MISSING , of course all are on SBo.
Hi, I noticed I am getting tons of this in my /var/log/messages. I have never enabled bluetooth. rc.bluetooth is chmod 644,
so any idea what is spawning this ?

That almost surely your desktop session attempting to start the blueman applet, and because bluetoothd isn't running, it bails out. It's a harmless message, aside from perhaps space considerations and the noise it generates potentially hiding non-noise.
You have at least a couple of options:
1. Remove the blueman package.
2. There's a default autostart script for blueman at /etc/xdg/autostart/blueman.desktop - but don't edit that one. Look in $HOME/.config/autostart/ and edit that one to have a "Hidden=true" line in it.

Thanks Robby, but I have only 2 files in my dir
bash-5.0$ ls .config/autostart/
xfce4-settings-helper-autostart.desktop xfconf-migration-4.6.desktop
So no one is for blueman seems to me, and both those files have Hidden=true in it.
Is that correct or am I missing something ?
Can we cleanup folders off /usr/lib from the official Slackware packages? While I don't have a full Slackware -current installed, I can see binutils, at-spi2-core, glib-networking and pycups still storing stuff inside the /usr/lib folder, whereas I would expect these to be under /usr/lib64 as of all other library files.
Also, can we review the current sysklogd package (dated from 2014)? It does not do DNS cache and triggers a PTR query request every time it receives a syslog message from a remote device. Yes, I can add the host name on the /etc/hosts file but this defeats the purpose of having a DNS server.

If files are still placed in /lib or /usr/lib after --libdir is set to /usr/lib64/, IMHO that's where they should go. I see no benefit to trying to hack the code to force things into a lib64 directory. Seems like it's just asking for breakage... at least if we try to change things here at this level. If it bothers you enough, direct your requests upstream. However I suspect there are good reasons that some scripts and other files are stored in a /lib directory regardless of the $LIBDIRSUFFIX and that they'll not accept the changes.
I also notice that some of your examples concern the /usr/lib/systemd/ directory. My advice would be to just ignore that.
