Many of these slackbuilds are stuck on older versions on slackware 15.0 due to various libraries in 15.0 that are too old. It'll take some time to go through it all but the last time I looked into upgrading or migrating these to webkit2gtk4.1/libsoup3 I had a ton of problems and package build fails and needed more patches than I maintain packages. Shortly after those packages came out, gnome upstream migrated to a libsoup3/webkit2gtk stack so I expect anything with libsoup2 to break here, even if the underlying deps switch over. I'd like to upgrade to newer gnome packages, but then I need a bunch of other packages/libraries in stock Slackware to be upgraded to newer versions to do that and that's a mess too.</div><div><br></div><div>If need be we can drop packages from the repo that I can't upgrade anymore along with dropping webkit2gtk, and then when next release comes around I can re-add builds (if I feel up to trying to chase fast moving gnome packages in a slow moving slackware stable world again!).</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Bob</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote gmail_quote_container"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Sep 10, 2026 at 12:45 PM KB_SBo <<a href="mailto:sbo@linuxgalaxy.org">sbo@linuxgalaxy.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">On 9/10/26 06:35, Willy Sudiarto Raharjo wrote:<br>
