Since ccrypt-1.11.tar.gz in sourceforge was not upgraded with the change, I do not know how/if a patch should be done in the build script. I will leave that up to you :) John jmclists at jmcunx.com From rizitis at gmail.com Sun Aug 3 17:47:31 2025 From: rizitis at gmail.com (=?UTF-8?B?zpnPic6szr3Ovc63z4I=?=) Date: Sun, 3 Aug 2025 20:47:31 +0300 Subject: [Slackbuilds-users] balena-etcher is broken Message-ID: I want to update the SB script as I'm the maintainer but I don't have slackware 15.0 bare metal.

Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.
