bash-4.4$ xfce4-terminal
xfce4-terminal: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre2-8.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Just installed a fresh copy of current and then updgraded with slackpkg upgrade-all and seems xfce terminal is not running.
This is a new request FYI since this is GTK+3 version of glade. The one shipped on Slackware was the GTK+2 version.
Good news is that it's co-installable just like GTK+X

When i reinstall Slackware i download slackware64 directory to /slackware64

Boot the usb stick.
mounting /dev/sda1 to /mnt
creating a directory called /mnt/old, moving everything in /mnt to /mnt/old (except for /mnt/slackware64)
starting the installer.
choosing /dev/sda1 as target to install
(Using the option not to format the target partion)
using /mnt/slackware64 as premounted directory for the installation
installation works like a charm.. but..
/mnt/etc/fstab (/dev/sda1 is mounted to /mnt) doesn't seem to be created

There's no bug. There's a README file in the /mnt directory of the installer which goes like this:
Code:
...don't go mounting your source partition(s) here. This directory is used
by 'setup' to mount your target partition(s). If you need to mount something,
make your own directory.
