(this will be renamed to /etc/named.conf if such a file does not already exist) slakware/y1/disky1: edited. slakware/y1/bsdgames.tgz: Upgraded to bsdgames-2.0. ---------------------------- Sun Mar 22 14:15:29 CST 1998 Change to structure of /slakware: Other than the A series, all other Slackware software series have been merged into single directories. This has been done to accomodate software packages larger will fit on a 1.44 megabyte floppy disk. So, the Slackware A series can still be installed for floppy disks, but not the rest of it. Sorry to those still generating 100+ installation floppies (are there any? :^) but fragmenting the distribution for complete installation from floppy disks really isn't practical anymore. As part of this update, most of the tagfiles, index files (diskap1, diskd1, diske1, etc) and maketag/maketag.ez scripts were edited. slakware/a1/aoutlibs.tgz: /usr/i486-linuxaout/ directory changed to the more generic /usr/ix86-linuxaout/ structure used by the Linux GCC team. slakware/a2/bin.tgz: .so manpage link added for 'awk'. slakware/a3/elflibs.tgz: Upgraded to libc.so.5.4.44 and libstdc++.so.2.8.0. slakware/a5/ldso.tgz: Linker directories changed to /usr/ix86-linux/ and /usr/ix86-linuxaout/. slakware/d1/libc.tgz: Upgraded to libc-5.4.44. slakware/d1/perl.tgz: Upgraded to perl5.004_04, merged into a single package. slakware/k1/diskk1: edited. slakware/k1/maketag, maketag.ez: edited. slakware/k1/tagfile, tagfile.org: edited. slakware/k1/lx2033.tgz: Merged together all Linux 2.0.33 source into a single package. slakware/k1/linuxinc.tgz: Added redundant Linux 2.0.33 include files package. slakware/n1/nn_nntp.tgz: Name changed from nn-nntp.tgz, since dashes are not legal on ISO9660 filesystems, and Slackware package names (at least within the /slakware area) follow this standard. Package recompiled. slakware/n1/nn_spool.tgz: Name changed from nn-spool.tgz. Missing manual pages added. Package recompiled. slakware/n1/trn_nntp.tgz: Name changed from trn-nntp.tgz. Package recompiled. slakware/n1/trn.tgz: Package recompiled. ---------------------------- Sat Mar 21 17:41:03 CST 1998 slakware/a4/hdsetup.tgz: Various fixes and /tmp-attack patches to the Slackware package management tools. (setup, pkgtool, installpkg, removepkg, makepkg, explodepkg) ---------------------------- Fri Mar 20 18:04:13 CST 1998 slakware/n1/mailx.tgz: Incorporated Olaf Kirch's anti-/tmp-attack patches. slakware/tcl1/tagfile, tagfile.org: edited. slakware/tcl1/maketag, maketag.ez: edited. slakware/tcl1/disktcl1: edited. slakware/tcl1/hfsutils.tgz: hfsutils-3.1 (for using Macintosh HFS volumes) ---------------------------- Wed Mar 18 16:52:55 CST 1998 slakware/a8/shadow.tgz: If /var/log/sulog doesn't exist, make it with mode 640. This prevents lusers from trying to make it mode 666, and covering their tracks after attempting to guess your root password. (which, if it's any good, should be a pointless waste of time anyway) ---------------------------- Fri Mar 13 00:13:19 CST 1998 slakware/a1/diska1: edited. slakware/a1/aaa_base.tgz: Upgraded to mtools-3.9. ---------------------------- Sun Mar 8 17:04:26 CST 1998 slakware/a8/diska8: edited. slakware/a8/shadow.tgz: Upgraded to shadow-980130. ---------------------------- Sat Mar 7 18:37:45 CST 1998 slakware/n6/tcpip.tgz: Upgraded fetchmail to version 4.3.9. ---------------------------- Wed Mar 4 14:07:46 CST 1998 contrib/aps-4.91.tar.gz: Added precompiled Linux binaries of a2ps and rewindstdin, and patched SETUP to use them. This allows apsfilter to be set up on machines that don't have an installed C compiler. slakware/a1/aaa_base.tgz: Added additional information to the initial email (/var/spool/mail/root.new) about setting up a Linux printer using APSfilter. slakware/n3/diskn3: edited. slakware/n3/ppp.tgz: Added ppp-2.3.3 in addition to ppp-2.2.0f. (Using ppp-2.3 requires a kernel that supports it) Also upgraded pppsetup to version 1.98. slakware/n4/diskn4: edited. slakware/n4/tin.tgz: Upgraded to tin pre-1.4 release 980226. ---------------------------- Mon Mar 2 16:54:13 CST 1998 slakware/a2/bin.tgz: Moved updatedb cron job from root's crontab to nobody's. slakware/a9/util.tgz: /sbin/fdisk patched to fix a coredump occuring when using "fdisk -l" on machines with IDE CD-ROM drives. slakware/tcl1/disktcl1: edited. slakware/tcl1/tcl.tgz: Upgraded to tcl8.0p2. slakware/tcl1/tk.tgz: Upgraded to tcl8.0p2. slakware/tcl2/disktcl2: edited. slakware/tcl2/tclx.tgz: Upgraded to tclX8.0.2. ---------------------------- Thu Feb 26 02:02:27 CST 1998 slakware/a3/diska3: edited. slakware/a3/getty.tgz: Upgraded to getty_ps-2.0.7j. ---------------------------- Mon Feb 23 14:28:17 CST 1998 slakware/a1/tagfile, tagfile.org, tagfile.pat: edited. slakware/a1/maketag, maketag.ez: edited. slakware/a2/diska2: edited. slakware/a2/bin.tgz: Removed modules-2.0.0, since modutils is now a seperate package, and upgraded to man-1.5b. slakware/a3/diska3: edited. slakware/a3/elflibs.tgz: Upgraded libc to version 5.4.38. Removed old gdbm and db libs.

Added symlinks in /usr/include and /usr/lib to allow ncurses to be picked up by auto-configure scripts as the default curses library. slakware/d10/diskd10: edited. slakware/a2/bin.tgz: Merged rpm2targz utility that used to be a contrib/ pkg. Added color-ls support for .rpm, .bz2.

Depricated curses, placing the old /usr/include/curses.h in /usr/include/oldcurses, and libcurses.so and libcurses.a in /usr/lib/oldcurses.
