Slackware 13.37slackware-13.37

Mon Apr 25 13:37:00 UTC 2011
Slackware 13.37 x86_64 stable is released!

Thanks to everyone who pitched in on this release: the Slackware team,
the folks producing upstream code, and linuxquestions.org for providing
a great forum for collaboration and testing.

The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a
dual-sided
32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD.  Please consider supporting the Slackware
project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com.  We're taking
pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription.

As always, thanks to the Slackware community for testing, suggestions,
and feedback.  :-)

Have fun!

+Google Chrome (Open Source Web Browser)
+---------------------------------------
+
+Here's how to install Google Chrome on Slackware.
+
+
+First, go to the Google Chrome site:
+
+http://www.google.com/chrome
+
+Click the download button, and select either:
+
+    < >  32 bit .deb (for Debian/Ubuntu)
+OR
+    < >  64 bit .deb (for Debian/Ubuntu)
+
+
+Read and accept the license terms, and download the .deb package.
+
+
+Then, with the google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb or 
+google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb package in the same directory
+as the google-chrome.SlackBuild script, run the script as root to
+convert the .deb to a Slackware .txz:
+
+./google-chrome.SlackBuild
+
+This will produce a Slackware compatible .txz package.  The exact
+version number in the package filename will depend on the version
+of Google Chrome found in the .deb package, but it will be something
+like:  google-chrome-10.0.648.151-x86_64-1.txz
+
+You'll find the output package in the /tmp directory.
+
+
+Then, install the package (again as root):
+
+cd /tmp
+upgradepkg --install-new google-chrome-10.0.648.151-x86_64-1.txz
+
+
+Finally, please note that Google Chrome requires the GConf and ORBit2
+packages found in this directory in order to run.  Be careful with these
+as they may create unintended dependencies on GConf/ORBit2 in other
+software that you compile on machines where they are installed.
+
+Newer beta and unstable builds may also require the PAM library libpam.so.0.
+Installing the google-chrome-pam-solibs package in this directory will
+allow these newer versions of Chrome to run without having to actually
+switch the system to using PAM.  If you need real PAM (to compile Chromium
+for example), you can find it in /extra/source/pam/.
+
+Enjoy!  :-)

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':'.
