Slackware 14.2slackware-14.2

Slackware 14.2 x86_64 stable is released!

The long development cycle (the Linux community has lately been living in
"interesting times", as they say) is finally behind us, and we're proud to
announce the release of Slackware 14.2.  The new release brings many updates
and modern tools, has switched from udev to eudev (no systemd), and adds
well over a hundred new packages to the system.  Thanks to the team, the
upstream developers, the dedicated Slackware community, and everyone else
who pitched in to help make this release a reality.

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.

Have fun!  :-)

+# For configuration options that have only two states, possible values are

+
+# Remember, the only official Slackware ports are x86, s390 and arm, and
+# slackpkg developers don't have s390 boxes for testing.  If you are
+# testing/using other architectures and have suggestions or patches, 
+# please let me know (piterpunk@slackware.com)
+#
+# Select the architecture of your system. Valid values are: 
+#	i#86 (where # is 3, 4, 5 or 6)
+#	x86_64
+#	s390
+#	arm* (* can be v4, v5tejl, and other ARM versions) 
+#	powerpc

+# The line is commented because slackpkg will try to find your

+# The default PKGMAIN is "slackware", but some derived distros use other
+# names as the main directory.  PKGMAIN is the place with the slackware
+# package series (a, ap, n, ... ).

+# Usually slackpkg can automagically discover this variable.  If you want
+# to override the discovered variable, then uncomment this line and change
+# it to reflect the correct value of PKGMAIN

+# Slackware packages are signed by project key.  Slackpkg uses this key
+# to check if the packages downloaded are valid, so remember to set

+# Post-installation features, by default, search all of /etc for .new files.
+# This is the safe option: with it, you won't have any unmerged .new files
