There is a bug in removepkg from the pkgtools package.

When I remove the ca-certificates package it fails to erase these files:

Code:
usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/AC_Ra\303\255z_Certic\303\241mara_S.A..crt
usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/Certinomis_-_Autorit\303\251_Racine.crt
usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/EBG_Elektronik_Sertifika_Hizmet_Sa\304\237lay\304\261c\304\261s\304\261.crt
usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/NetLock_Arany_=Class_Gold=_F\305\221tan\303\272s\303\255tv\303\241ny.crt
usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/T\303\234B\304\260TAK_UEKAE_K\303\266k_Sertifika_Hizmet_Sa\304\237lay\304\261c\304\261s\304\261_-_S\303\274r\303\274m_3.crt
usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/T\303\234RKTRUST_Elektronik_Sertifika_Hizmet_Sa\304\237lay\304\261c\304\261s\304\261_H5.crt
usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/T\303\234RKTRUST_Elektronik_Sertifika_Hizmet_Sa\304\237lay\304\261c\304\261s\304\261_H6.crt
Here is one way to fix it:
Code:
--- removepkg.orig	2016-06-14 15:10:58.000000000 -0700
+++ removepkg	2016-07-04 14:08:13.481629834 -0700
@@ -190,7 +190,8 @@
 }
 
 delete_files() {
- while read FILE ; do
+ while read -r AFILE ; do   # do not expand backslashes on read
+  FILE=$(printf "$AFILE")   # unescape octal characters
   if [ ! -d "$ROOT/$FILE" ]; then
    if [ -r "$ROOT/$FILE" ]; then
     if [ "$ROOT/$FILE" -nt "$ADM_DIR/packages/$PKGNAME" ]; then

I posted all this in a thread:

I guess I will post this here since people are still asking for upgrades

On the next release can /run/media or maybe even /run be appended to /etc/updatedb.conf PRUNEPATHS ? I noticed updatedb picked up files mounted under /run/meadia

Please could the httpd package be changed so as not to move an existing /srv/httpd out of the way every time it is updated? I'd rather it not mess with stuff under /srv at all, but if it must move stuff around in /srv, then how about using a /srv/httpd.new in the usual slackware fashion which the admin can move into place if desired?

I request that again...with more info.


Pease ...compile mesa , enabling opencl ... benefits all apps can use opencl , in to amd machines , thats nice since AMD driver NO COMPILE anymore , because no support xorg-1.18 branch.

1 - need extra dependency libclc , git version wants llvm-3.9 , and this is not "stable" , then go to one liclc point in git supporting llvm-3.8

this one (i see archlinux instructions for info) --> https://github.com/llvm-mirror/libcl...dd9501abcd.zip

that commit is the last ,compile under llvm-3.8

Quote:
sed -i 's/"python < $in >/sys.executable + " < $in >/g' configure.py

python2 ./configure.py --prefix=/usr
make
make install

now have libclc , and can enable in mesa package the opencl

Quote:
--enable-opencl --enable-opencl-icd \

Thanks.

I think this may be a useful argument regarding the AMD drivers. Since AMD has shifted support to the amdgpu-pro driver, the fglrx drivers have stagnated.

Adding libclc and enabling OpenCL support on Mesa might be beneficial to round out support in the free driver.

However the build-flag --enable-opencl-icd isn't required to add OpenCL support, just --enable-opencl.

It has some limitations, such as Nouveau and Intel support is limited, but is does work well for AMD series under the "radeon" series.
