Slackware 11.0 release candidate 5.  This is the last one, scout's honor.
a/aaa_elflibs-11.0.0-i486-9.tgz:  Stripped /lib/libbz2.so.1.0.3, added
  /lib/libdm.so.0.0.4.
a/bzip2-1.0.3-i486-3.tgz:  Stripped /lib/libbz2.so.1.0.3.
ap/espgs-8.15.3svn185-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to espgs-8.15.3svn185.
  OK, I don't like using repo versions at all, much less inserting them at the
  last second.  But, it seems like par for the course for ghostscript and its
  offshoots where there wasn't much choice about shipping 8.15rc4 in Slackware
  10.2.  In this case, building from svn fixes two critical problems:  missing
  support for CJK, and not correctly printing Umlauts with certain fonts.
  Thanks to Shin-ichi Abe and Matthias Bachert.
  If this version of espgs creates new problems that are worse than these,
  please let me know as soon as possible.  It's tested here and seems stable.
ap/vim-7.0.109-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to vim-7.0.109.
d/subversion-1.4.0-i486-1.tgz:  After a couple convincing assurances that this
  was a safe and ABI/API compatible upgrade, I decided to allow this upgrade.
  Thanks to Malcolm Rowe and Janusz Dziemidowicz.
l/desktop-file-utils-0.11-i486-1.tgz:  Added desktop-file-utils-0.11.
  The next XFce will need this freedesktop.org package.
  Thanks to Robby Workman for the information.
l/libexif-0.6.13-i486-2.tgz:  Fixed libexif.pc includedir.
  Thanks to Charles Shannon Hendrix for pointing this out.
l/libtheora-1.0alpha7-i486-1.tgz:  Added libtheora-1.0alpha7.  This links with
  (as far as I know) optional plugins only and is a safe last-second addition.
  Furthermore, the Theora team has promised that files encoded with this
  version of the codec will always be playable.  The format is stable and ready
  for production use, so keeping it out of 11.0 due to the "alpha" would be
  plain silly.  Suggested by Edo Hikmahtiar, and Diogo R.
l/libungif-4.1.4-i486-3.tgz:  Added the utilities in /usr/bin, some of which
  are used to detect that annoying image spam that's on the rise...
  Thanks to Joran Kvalvaag.
l/neon-0.25.5-i486-1.tgz:  Added neon package, split from subversion-deps-1.4.0.
x/dejavu-ttf-2.10-noarch-1.tgz:  Upgraded to dejavu-ttf-2.10.
xap/vim-gvim-7.0.109-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to vim-7.0.109.
  Once again, this is just an add-on for the VIM package in ap.  :-)
xap/xine-lib-1.1.2-i686-2.tgz:  Recompiled against libtheora to include the
  Theora codec plugin.  Theora testsuite passed.
xap/xine-ui-0.99.4-i686-3.tgz:  Patched an issue where xine-ui could block
  input to Konsole.  Thanks to Nuts Mueller.
extra/linux-smp-2.6.17.13/kernel-headers-smp-2.6.17.13-i386-1.tgz:
  Fixed slack-desc typo.  No actual rebuild, so no -$BUILD bump.
  Thanks to David Somero.
isolinux/initrd.img:  Fixed swap setup in the "Cancel" or unselecting all swap
  partitions case.  Thanks to Marcus Moeller.
rootdisks/install.1:  Rebuilt.
rootdisks/install.2:  Fixed swap setup.
rootdisks/install.zip:  Fixed swap setup.

l/libgpod-0.3.2-i486-2.tgz:  Added --enable-eject-command and
  --enable-unmount-command.  Thanks to Kody K.
kde/amarok-1.4.3-i486-4.tgz:  Recompiled with a patch to fix non-latin1
  playlist corruption by forcing UTF8.
  Thanks to guilherme and the kind folks on #amarok.
  Added explicit --emable-libgpod.  Thanks to Kody K.
kde/kdeutils-3.5.4-i486-2.tgz:  Fixed ark crash due to race condition on SMP
  machines.  Thanks to JaguarWan.
n/rdesktop-1.5.0-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to rdesktop-1.5.0.
  Thanks to Andrew Fuller for pointing it out.
x/x11-6.9.0-i486-11.tgz:  Fixed an overflow in CID encoded Type1 font parsing.

extra/linux-smp-2.6.17.13/kernel-generic-smp-2.6.17.13-i686-1.tgz:
  This is an optional kernel with support for SMP (up to 16), dual core
  optimizations, and SMT (Hyperthreading).  Fully tuned and ready to go.
extra/linux-smp-2.6.17.13/kernel-headers-smp-2.6.17.13-i386-1.tgz
  Optional kernel headers.  There will only be needed to compile a few things,
  such as apps and libraries that use ALSA (it contains the /usr/include/sound
  directory that for 2.4.x kernels is supplied in the alsa-driver package).
extra/linux-smp-2.6.17.13/kernel-modules-smp-2.6.17.13-i686-1.tgz:
  Kernel modules for Linux 2.6.17.13-smp, including ALSA modules.
  These install into /lib/modules/2.6.17.13-smp/.
