[Slackbuilds-users] anki Slackbuild

[glenn_e_becker]

Hi -

If I'm reading the changelogs correctly, v. 24.11 of Anki is the last version before the glibc dependency went to 2.35+ (but >2.31).

I built 24.11 successfully and it works well on my stable box.

Re: a PR, I will open myself to ridicule by saying I've never done one. Happily I'm now retired and have plenty of time to figure it out (if folks are willing to wait).

Thx,

Glenn
