Pat may want to rename the file if the wget bug does not get fixed soon.

My bad
I missed this detail
My error was unfortunately confirmed by the fact that the error probably did not exist before ...

I recently bought a new notebook (Lenovo IdeaPad 5 15M) and had some audio issues.

Researching the web I found this laptop's audio subsystem requires sof-firmware to work, which is available from https://github.com/thesofproject/sof-bin/

Based on Fedora's specfile and Arch's PKGBUILD I made a simple SlackBuild (https://github.com/richarson/slackbu...s/sof-firmware) but having sof-firmware ins stcok Slackware would be great (feel free to preuse/reuse/whatever my SlackBuild).

Thanks in advance!

PS: This Fedora bugzilla issue has way more info than needed: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1772498

Bumping my old request in case Pat missed it.

Summary: sof-firmware is needed in some Lenovo laptops to make speakers and mic work. There are sources (https://github.com/thesofproject/sof) and binaries (https://github.com/thesofproject/sof-bin). I made a slackbuild that repackages the binaries, as compiling the sources is pretty overkill for me and other distros (Arch, Fedora, openSUSE) also repackage the binaries.

More info:

I'm working on an update to sof-firmware 1.7 but the structure of the source package changed a lot so I'll have to rework my slackbuild (https://github.com/richarson/slackbu...s/sof-firmware).

In case my mails didn't arrive, please consider updating texlive -> 2021, here it is:
https://ctan.net/systems/texlive/Sou...-source.tar.xz
http://slackware.schoepfer.info/slac...-210418.tar.xz
http://slackware.schoepfer.info/slac...ve/texlive.tar

Some infos to the build changes,
-texmf-base is now named YYMMDD, rather than YYYY.YYMMDD
-building against system poppler/xpdf isn't possible anymore by upstream
-removed unnecessary LD_LIBRARY_PATH and texmf.cnf adjustments before the build, which seems was needed some releases ago
-added some fixes by upstream after the release
-removed tabu.sty workaround for doxygen, as doxygen is now build without docs
-adjusted configure-options to make "make check" work

sip >= 5.x

I use eric6 for python and the latest version requires sip >= 5.0. I understand that sip after 4.x no longer has standalone releases. Would it be possible to upgrade it to the latest version, either at about this time or after release?

I think source can be grabbed from this link (see the last file, a tarball)

https://pypi.org/project/sip/#files

Thanks!

I'm going to go ahead and call this a beta even though there's still no fix
for the illegal instruction issue with 32-bit mariadb. But there should be
soon

And :

Code:

  This update fixes the illegal instruction regession on 32-bit with processors
  that do not support SSE4.1 instructions.
  Thanks to Noel and Charlie Wilder for reporting the issue upstream
  and Matteo Bernardini for helping with the debugging.
  And of course, thanks to the MariaDB upstream developers. :-)

Could we perhaps have gcc built with support for JIT*, in anticipation of Emacs 28?

*There's some packaging notes on that page about having to build twice with and without '--enable-host-shared' (basically once for JIT with --enable-host-shared and --enable-languages=jit, and once with just --enable-languages=all).

Perhaps, although 10.5.10 is imminent in the stable tree, I have a copy, so I expect it publicly released very, very soon

and well I guess -current still technically is a pre production with no guarantees, we all know the risks.
