a/glibc-solibs-2.27-x86_64-3.txz:  Rebuilt.
a/pkgtools-15.0-noarch-16.txz:  Rebuilt.
  upgradepkg: clean up --help output and add options
  upgradepkg: accept -help option (not just --help)
  upgradepkg: don't omit error messages in --terse mode
  upgradepkg: only print missing new package in old%new mode
  upgradepkg.8: move information about config file handling from BUGS to the
    DESCRIPTION section
  Thanks to Xsane.
ap/vim-8.1.0039-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
l/glibc-2.27-x86_64-3.txz:  Rebuilt.
  When installing the package, remove old versions of the glibc shared
  libraries. In addition to eliminating residue on the system from old
  package versions, this change will make it possible in the future to
  revert to older glibc packages using upgradepkg.
l/glibc-i18n-2.27-x86_64-3.txz:  Rebuilt.
l/glibc-profile-2.27-x86_64-3.txz:  Rebuilt.
n/gnupg2-2.2.8-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
  Sanitize the diagnostic output of the original file name in verbose mode.
  By using a made up file name in the message it was possible to fake status
  messages. Using this technique it was for example possible to fake the
  verification status of a signed mail.

-Upgradepkg upgrades a Slackware package (.tgz, .tbz, .tlz, .txz) from an
-older version to a newer one. It does this by INSTALLING the new package
-onto the system, and then REMOVING any files from the old package that
-aren't in the new package. If the old and new packages have the same
-name, a single argument is all that is required. If the packages have
