<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []"><span>Understood, Matteo. If I can't find
a good reason to update gnome-terminal to 3.60.0, we'll keep the
current version as it is. The current SlackBuild I sent Bob
works on Slackware-current.</span></p>
<p><span>Thanks.</span></p>

<p><span>Hi Matteo,</span></p>
<p><span>First of all, thank you for the time and effort
you put into maintaining the repository for
Slackware-current.</span></p>
<p><span>I understand your policy regarding the
repository, but I have a question about the
gnome-terminal package.</span></p>
<p><span>The version currently available in SBo is
3.43.90, which is kept there because of the dependency
limitations of Slackware 15.0. However, the current
upstream stable release is 3.60.0, and
Slackware-current already provides a sufficiently
recent dependency stack to build it.</span></p>
<p><span>So, in this particular case, the old version in
SBo is not really a limitation of Slackware-current
itself, but rather a consequence of SBo having to
remain compatible with Slackware 15.0.</span></p>

<div>this could also be true for everything else that cannot
be upgraded because libraries in 15.0 are too old, right?
like all the other gnome scripts, for example, but probably
also thousands other ones...</div>

<p><span>Would you consider accepting a current-specific
version bump to gnome-terminal 3.60.0 as an exception
to the usual policy?</span></p>

<div>like I said if it's something that has some added value
(the ${good_reasons} indicated before) and the maintainer
agrees then it's ok for me...</div>
