All updates since last Friday, the 14th September. The newest kernel in Current is now 4.14.71. Not that every small, incremental update would matter that much unless you're got some piece of hardware you're desperately waiting to be supported. At the same time, kernel.org is up to 4.18.9 for latest stable and 4.19-rc4 in the development branch. If you need it, but my pc's here are running perfectly fine with older kernels. Salut and see ya.

Even KDE4 has migrated away from actually using this for anything. The last
thing in Slackware that was dependent on it was Soprano, which has been
recompiled to no longer use it.

ap/dmidecode-3.2-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
ap/nano-3.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
ap/slackpkg-2.83.0-noarch-4.txz: Rebuilt.
Merged two patches from git:
Clarify that a press of "Enter" is needed to confirm kernel change
Mention possible stale mirror if CHECKSUMS.md5 gpg verify fails
Thanks to Mario Preksavec and Robby Workman.
ap/sqlite-3.25.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
ap/xorriso-1.5.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
l/lmdb-0.9.22-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt.
Fixed the build script to clear out the build area properly - previously
it was possible for binaries of the wrong $ARCH to end up in the package.
Thanks to reddog83.
n/gnutls-3.6.3-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt.
Merged backported SSL/TLS fixes. Thanks to orbea.

ap/hplip-3.18.7-x86_64-4.txz: Rebuilt.
Applied fixed patch - this has a better chance of working now. I've checked
and hpcups no longer links to libImageProcessor. Which, by the way, the
previous build dumped onto my main system (not even in "make install"),
but not into the package itself. I no longer own an HP printer and will
never buy another one, so if there are any remaining problems please report.
Thanks to Matteo Bernardini.
d/kernel-headers-4.14.70-x86-1.txz: Upgraded.
