Slackware 14.0slackware-14.0

Slackware 14.0 x86_64 stable is released!

We're perfectionists here at Slackware, so this release has been a long
time a-brewing.  But we think you'll agree that it was worth the wait.
Slackware 14.0 combines modern components, ease of use, and flexible
configuration... our "KISS" philosophy demands it.

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.

Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen.  The Slackware team, the
upstream developers, and (of course) the awesome Slackware user
community.

Have fun!  :-)

 gcc-gfortran: gcc-gfortran (Fortran support for GCC)
 gcc-gfortran:
+gcc-gfortran: The GNU Fortran compiler is fully compliant with the Fortran 95
+gcc-gfortran: Standard and includes legacy F77 support.  In addition, a significant
+gcc-gfortran: number of Fortran 2003 and Fortran 2008 features are implemented.
+gcc-gfortran: GNU Fortran also contains many standard and extensions and can be
+gcc-gfortran: used to run real-world programs.
+gcc-gfortran:
 gcc-gfortran: This package contains those parts of the compiler collection
-gcc-gfortran: needed to compile Fortran code.  The base gcc package is also
-gcc-gfortran: required.  The GNU Fortran compiler is able to compile nearly all
-gcc-gfortran: standard-compliant Fortran 95, Fortran 90, and Fortran 77 programs,
-gcc-gfortran: including a number of standard and non-standard extensions, and can
-gcc-gfortran: be used on real-world programs.  In particular, the supported
-gcc-gfortran: extensions include OpenMP, Cray-style pointers, and several Fortran
-gcc-gfortran: 2003 features such as enumeration, stream I/O, and some of the
-gcc-gfortran: enhancements to allocatable array support from TR 15581.
+gcc-gfortran: needed to compile Fortran code.  The gcc package is also required.

+# 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 ':'.

+gcc-go: gcc-go (Go support for GCC)
+gcc-go:
+gcc-go: Go is a compiled, garbage-collected, concurrent programming language
+gcc-go: developed by Google Inc.  The initial design of Go was started in
+gcc-go: September 2007 by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson.
+gcc-go: Rob Pike has stated that Go is being used "for real stuff" at Google.
+gcc-go: Go's "gc" compiler targets the Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and
+gcc-go: Microsoft Windows operating systems, and the i386, amd64, and ARM
+gcc-go: processor architectures.
