      extra is a Gentoo thing. Gentoo uses keyword flags to let you
      include or exclude any optional capability a program has. For
      example, python is one flag. Many programs have optional
      capability that depends on Python. To get that capability you
      include the python flag when installing that program. For a
      program like f3 that has unique optional capability, they don't
      create a flag for that they use the generic flag extra. That is
      why they changed the name from experimental to extra.<br>
      <br>
      Clearly our systems are different. Let me explain how my system
      reached its current state.<br>
      <br>
      1. I installed Slackware64 from the 14-2 release last summer
      (everything installed except emacs).<br>
      2. I used slpkg to update and upgrade my system. I think that adds
      all the official security fixes and bug fixes.<br>
      3. I installed a lot of programs from SBo, using slpkg (over 120
      packages).<br>
      4. I installed chromium and LibreOffice from Alien Bob's
      repository using slpkg.<br>
      <br>
      I plan to use slpkg weekly  to keep my system up to date. I have
      upgraded it once so far.<div><div class="h5"><br>

                figured out a way to make it compile without errors.<br>
                <br>
                1. I applied the Gentoo patches.<br>
                2. Unfortunately the Gentoo patches changed the word
                experimental to extra in the Makefile. That won't work
                with the SlackBuild so I manually changed them back to
                experimental.<br>
                3. I ran libtoolize on the source, that sometimes avoids
                problems.<br>
                4. I complied it but got some multiple function
                definition errors. A Google search suggested adding
                -fgnu89-inline to CFLAGS, that worked. If I had read the
                Gentoo ebuild more carefully, I would have noticed they
                added -fgnu89-inline to CFLAGS.<br>
                5. I zipped the patched source used slpkg to create the
                Slackware package and install it.<br>
                <br>
                I think that the Gentoo patches adjust the source so it
                compiles under 64 bits. That way I don't need to install
                Multilib.<br>
                <br>
                Thanks for your input.
