Hello Slackware users
I compile gcc-4.8.1 and rebuild my entire system from scratch.Yes i know i use minimal system installation but all packages build perfectly.
This is the steps and packages that i rebuild from source using new gcc-4.8.1
First i recompile all the packages/dependencies needed to rebuild my entire system.
First i recompile all packages/dependencies with gcc-4.8.0
The dependencie packages needed to rebuild my entire system
This is the build order
Second step is compiling toolchain
Build order are
Code:

Six step is to recompile xfce4
This is the build order
With this net-tools now compiles perfect

tux, in your gcc script, you hardcoded x86_64 only
why not both arches ?
Well i don't think that anybody want to try this.
My host is x86_64 it's not so hard to edit this script and reconfigure it to i686.
I also have create a build script for all dependencies,"system stuff",all toolchain packages,"other stuff" ,etc
And, because, of its development model, Slackware is considered as "not easy rebuild-able from sources", and even "un-rebuild-able from sources", I suggest you to continue to develop your work and this thread is what I call "it should be sticky"!
Why? Because if we manage to have a sources tree where with execution of an "slackware.Slackbuild" of even few scripts, we have opened a great window for experimentation, i.e. "which one is better as ARCH? i486, i586 or i686?" and for even more stability for Slackware, i.e. a more simple way to resolve The Great LibPNG Problem.
Also, porting the slackware to an new ARM platform will become more easy, when we known "how to build Slackware, step-by-step".

Thank you for your support neighbour
Well the hardest part of that build was the build order for the packages.Especially for dependiencies

Hello all.Now i use google-chrome.To make possible to download magnet links with transmission i need to patch xdg-open.
This is the patch that i used.

Ok now this is for Pat
This patch is needed to openssl to build with new perl-5.18 because the build fails in pod2man while trying to generate man pages from the pod files
This is the error
