[Slackbuilds-users] Bluefish and glib2

[Didier Spaier]

Hello, just another FYI,

Since nearly a month ago (I April 2025) I have upgraded glib2 to version 2.84.0
(then, 2.84.1) in Slint (mainly based on Slackware64-125.0) reusing the
SlackBuild from Slackware64-current without issue observed by me or reported by
users.

I won't suggesting that this should or could be done by SBo, instead that as
there is no ETA for for a new Slackware version doing that locally could help
users upgrade some software.

Cheers,
Didier
