[Slackbuilds-users] updates to signal-desktop

[David O'Shaughnessy]

That's been a problem for me too, but how does the glibc in testing actually work? I see from the changelog (2025/09/19) it's got a bunch of packages:

testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/aaa_glibc-solibs-2.42-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/binutils-2.45-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/gcc-15.2.0-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/gcc-g++-15.2.0-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/gcc-gcobol-15.2.0-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/gcc-gdc-15.2.0-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/gcc-gfortran-15.2.0-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.

testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/gcc-gnat-15.2.0-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/gcc-go-15.2.0-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/gcc-objc-15.2.0-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/gcc-rust-15.2.0-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/glibc-2.42-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/glibc-i18n-2.42-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.
testing/packages/binutils-gcc-glibc/glibc-profile-2.42-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Added.

Is it as simple as upgradepkg on all of those? No special upgrade order?

Thanks,
