It installs fine, but when you run it: $ qcontrolcenter Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/qcontrolcenter", line 10, in from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui ImportError: No module named PyQt4 It's been that way since qt4 and its python bindings were removed from Slackware (meaning, it likely worked in 14.2, but not at all in 15.0). Since nobody ever reported this as a problem, it's likely that nobody has even tried to use qControlCenter since at least 2022. We don't have anything that provides PyQt4 in our repo.

It's really just a single Python script with some icons and a .desktop file. Their qcontrolcenter-0.3.tar.xz is laid out like a Slackware package, but it's also the "source". If I install their package (qcontrolcenter-0.3-noarch-3dj.txz), it does run, and pops up instructions on how to set up $HOME so the application will actually do anything (without doing that, you get an empty window). I didn't jump through all the hoops, so I dunno if it really would work properly... but I bet it would. That said. I don't want to maintain this, I'd never use it anyway. Does anyone else? > or if it's even worth keeping if it is if no one has bothered reporting the original being broken.? Yeah, that makes me think it should just get removed. The only reason I hesitate is because it was Didier's build, and Didier was a friend.

The previous maintainer hasn't answered the email I sent him 6 days ago, and he hasn't updated it since 2020 (even though there is a version 1.0.37 released about 6 months ago). If you submit the update now, it won't go live until the next site update, probably Friday, Sep 11.

I think it would be nice to have a UID/GID assigned, tinc can setuid to another user. An own UID and GID are not a hard requirement, but would be nice for it IMO. Side question, there are some programs (postfix, dovecot) which are now included in Slackware. What is supposed to happen with the UID/GID assignments of those? Eventually we'll run out of UIDs < 1000, we are already above 400.

OK, UID/GID 403 are now tinc/tinc: https://slackbuilds.org/uid_gid.txt > Side question, there are some programs (postfix, dovecot) which are > now included in Slackware. What is supposed to happen with the UID/GID > assignments of those? That's a good question. During the development cycle (when submissions are closed and we're fixing everything for 16.0), we'll remove those from our uid_gid.txt, and renumber anything there that collides with the new Slackware's new users/groups. The numbers can change as needed. Changing the number that a build uses *does* mean that build needs to be rebuilt on any system where it's installed (you can't keep using the old .tgz package)... but when upgrading to a new Slackware version, you *really* want to rebuild all your SBo stuff anyway. > Eventually we'll run out of UIDs < 1000, we are already above 400. Well... We started at 200 (with a couple of exceptions before that), and we're now at 403. It took us 20 years to use up 204 numbers... and we still have 597 available ones. So it shouldn't be a problem any time soon. Some of those older numbers are no longer needed, and could be recycled. For instance, we no longer have "apache2" or "ntop" builds on SBo, so numbers 207 and 212 could be reused. Looks like "halevt" (224) could go, too.

Unfortunately, we can't do anything if upstream removed the download unless you happen to find a copy somewhere that can be uploaded to sbodirectlinks... But that shouldn't be needed since it seems Willy has already tested the newer version. To get this working, you just need to update that code block I mentioned in the SlackBuild to be able to run it against the newer 25.8.x version.

I ask because there's a whole bunch of my slackbuilds that depend on gnome-online-accounts which that will filter down through. 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. 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!).

Bob, it it possible to bump gnome-* to 43? it's the minimum version that already uses webkit2gtk4.1 if it's not possible, then at least we can reduce the number of packages that still depends on webkit2gtk and so far only 4 left out of 20 from 2 days ago, which is a good progress :) liferea is tricky. All 1.x release are still at webkit2gtk while the new 2.x version switch to webkit2gtk4.1 but they require libpeas-2 which breaks ABI with libpeas 1.x but it requires newer glib, so we can't package them on 15.0.

I hope this is the correct list to post this on. Would it be possible to enable shallow git clones over HTTPS for the SlackBuilds repository? I develop an SBo package manager, and recently added support for shallow clones since it only needs the current contents of a branch. Avoiding the repos long history reduces download sizes and disk usage. However, currently this command: git clone --depth=1 https://git.slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/ Fails with: fatal: dumb http transport does not support shallow capabilities It looks like the HTTPS endpoint uses Git?s ?dumb HTTP? transport. Would you consider enabling read-only smart HTTP access, perhaps through Git?s git-http-backend? Smart HTTP supports shallow clones, allowing clients to download a branch?s current contents without its full history. My understanding is that smart HTTP can be enabled at the existing URL while preserving support for older clients through the dumb HTTP transport. Thanks for considering this and thanks for maintaining SlackBuilds.org! -- Nicholas B.

Today is the public update, so if you are still testing gnome-boxes-50, i can just push the 43 updates first and we will get it done with 50 updates for next week. This will give you more time to test :) If you submit PR for anything, i can manage it on our side, do not worry about conflicts. Just make sure you base your updates from our latest master branch Yes, feel free to communicate with us via any means, email, github/gitlab, mailing list. -- Willy Sudiarto Raharjo -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I changed the tarball so it passed the public update script but if you clone from git, it will list 2 new scripts that doesn't exist yet in our repo. Maintainer will submit it for next week's update - python-stdum was removed while python3-vatnumber required it, so i asked python3-vatnumber maintainer to submit python3-stdum to replace python-stdum. I just found the issue while merging all branches since it happened on two different branches during this week's work. While you can still search for python3-stdum in the website, but the files were deleted via git. It will be completely removed next week after python3-stdum is approved. We also removed a lot of python scripts this week since most of them are no longer maintained and do not other scripts depends on them. If you need to use it for your future submission, please resubmit and take over maintenance. Also i want to mention that we are getting closer to deprecate webkit2gtk from our repository. Out of 20 scripts that directly depends on webkit2gtk, it's just 1 left that is still hanging, which is gnome-builder. Thanks to all who helped us migrated all those scripts to webkit2gtk4.1. We said many times that development cycle starts when Patrick announced Alpha/Beta label. While he did announce it Alpha 1 on LQ, we decided to wait a bit more time for -current to settle in before we freeze the submission for 15.0. Once he announced next Alpha or Beta, we *might* start the development cycle for future 16.0 repository. That means that all submission will be closed and all scripts must be tested against current. It's a lot of work as the basic toolchain jumped a lot during 15 -> 16.0 so we need time to sort every scripts there to make sure it built fine on future 16.0.

For some background, the general idea around the gnome desktop environment you can get on slackbuilds.org was as follows: gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-control-center - provides the control panel for the gnome desktop, which is integrated into the gnome-shell interface. gnome-shell/mutter - the actual graphical interface gdm - login manager and screen locking facility for gnome desktop After those core packages, I maintain the packages for applications that gnome ships to fill out the desktop as well, otherwise its just a bare graphical shell with a settings panel. ~~~ Now with gnome-online-accounts bumped and put on the webkit2gtk4.1/libsoup3 dependency chain, the following packages are broken: gnome-control-center - crashes immediately at runtime due to mixed libsoup2 and libsoup3 symbols. This basically kneecaps the entire gnome desktop environment, making gnome-shell fairly useless as a desktop environment for users. gnome-shell can still be installed and used to run gdm, but if a user tries launching a gnome-shell based desktop from gdm as that combination is intended to do, they wont have a functional control panel in that desktop environment. I think the gnome-control-center package will have to be removed until the next release where slackware has newer glib2/gtk/gjs/etc libraries that can support the gnome desktop environment stack again. I'll have to update my build queue repo's readmes and LQ posts with warning messages about the breakage. There's other options/repos out there to install the gnome desktop now anyway so I could just point others to use that now. evolution-data-server - This fails to build at its current version, citing a missing webkit2gtk4.0 package. This webkit2gtk4.0 dependency was previously pulled into the build order via gnome-online-accounts being at the older version. With the newer version of gnome-online-accounts, this build is broken, which will break all further builds with evolution-data-server in their dependency chain. I managed to build evolution-data-server version 3.46.4, which had webkit2gtk4.1 supported, but had to switch off some now unsupported options in the slackbuild to do that. Then I used that package to continue testing against other builds I have that depend on evolution-data-server. I hope Ozan is reading this because it's his package and it also will fall through to the evolution package he maintains. I only looked at my builds that need evolution-data-server which are: gnome-maps <--- still breaks, even with upgrading evolution-data-server, need to look if newer version is possible gnome-contacts <--- runs okay with newer evolution-data-server gnome-calendar <--- build is broken against newer evolution-data-server due to libsoup2/libsoup3, need to look if newer version is possible gnome-shell <--- builds and runs against the newer evolution-data-server, but control panel is broken if used as a regular desktop environment, as mentioned earlier gdm <--- builds and runs as expected with newer evolution-data-server gnome-terminal <--- builds and runs as expected with newer evolution-data-server So there is a mix of success and failure there. I was keeping those packages in the same older gnome versions to keep everything at libsoup2 dependent versions. Now that gnome-control-center is broken, there's not much point to trying to maintain a functional desktop experience and I'll look further into if these individual applications can just be bumped to newer versions. The rest of my builds that depend on gnome-online-accounts seem to build and run okay with the newer version on webkit2gtk4.1. To recap what is broken by the gnome-online-accounts changeover, even if evolution-data-server gets an update: gnome-control-center gnome-maps gnome-calendar Which I'd suggest removal of for now. Also, regarding gnome-builder: The gnome-builder 42.x versions are the latest we can build on slackware 15.0. Anything newer wants a higher glib2 version, and/or more deps as well like needing libdex, which is also version stuck because of glib2's age in slackware 15.0. If you are wanting to remove webkit2gtk (4.0), then maybe remove this too. I don't use it, I just took over maintenance of a number of gnome builds when the prior maintainer left. If someone wants to use it in the next slackware version, they will be able to easily build newer gnome-builder versions in the next release and can submit the build again then. So that's my findings from this morning's testing against this webkit2gtk4.0 deprecation.

That URL does support shallow cloning. However, Git?s native git:// transport provides neither encryption nor server authentication. Since the package manager downloads build scripts that are executed as root, I?d prefer to retain HTTPS.

My preference would still be for my package manager's default configuration to point directly to git.slackbuilds.org, while retaining HTTPS.

Thanks for the thorough investigation on this issue Bob We hoped that the impact would be minimal, but it turns out worse than what we expected. I would suggest to revert goa update back to webkit2gtk, keep gnome-builder as it is with webkit2gtk and keep gnome-boxes update only since it's still working well with webkit2gtk4.1. At least we shrink the number of packages that still depends on webkit2gtk to a minimum number. We can take a look back on those during development cycle for next SBo repository.

It is orphaned currently but I'm planning to take over the maintenance of it and rabbitmq-c. Just a few days ago I reached out to the elixir's maintainer and asked for an update. I've already tested erlang-otp 27.3.4.17 and elixir 1.18.5 and have a first version of patches (elixir builds as is, erlang-otp needs some work). So I offered the maintainer to provide the patches for an update. He responded very quickly (faster than I could reply) and agreed to update as soon as I send him the patches. So I'm currently working on cleaning up the patch. The elixir package doesn't seem to be abandoned, but since its version in the repository is quite old, I'd like to check in with its current maintainer once more, just to be sure.

This would include the goa/evolution-data-server/evolution stack. As the years pass on, I'm not so sure anymore because I am holding goa & evolution back with version requirements, but it's been the least intrusive. This is why I asked if webkit2gtk truly needed to be dropped, or if it can be kept around for legacy reasons. We could also split off a few "legacy" packages that use the webkit2gtk4.0/libsoup2 dependencies to support the older packages, and then upgrade the rest to webkit2gtk4.1. Would that be a better alternative? It would mean adding more packages to the repo that just get removed at next release, but then a newer goa/evolution stack could be upgraded, which I am currently holding back from being upgraded with this libsoup*/webkit2gtk* mess. It's unfortunate the slackware-15.0 release (freezing things like glib2 and gtk) landed right in the middle of gnome's changeover from libsoup2 to libsoup3 and webkit2gtk moving on to 4.1 and 6.0 (and webkit2gtk5.0, which was a short lived development version used in the gnome-43 branch, which I'm also trying to avoid). It's been a problem I knew would be coming eventually and here we are. I'm happy to provide support for either way you want to take this issue. I'd be fine removing gnome-control-center and breaking the desktop experience, as I can easily use other desktops like kde or xfce with gnome applications. I just don't know who else might use the gnome desktop from those packages that this might bother. I'm also fine with adding on some legacy type packages to support old stuff while moving what we can onward, or just sitting on webkit2gtk4.0/libsoup2 till Slackware 16.0 is here.

The initial idea is to remove webkit2gtk completely, but we know it's kinda hard since some project are stuck with that and moving to newer webkit2gtk4.1 means adding new requirements that can't be met with Slackware 15.0. So i guess keeping some of the script at webkit2gtk is the best solution for now. I have reverted goa changes on my branch so everything will be working again on next public update. The only changes is gnome-boxes which is updated to use webkit2gtk4.1. With Slackware 16.0, we aim to provide webkit2gtk4.1 and webkit2gtk6.0 -- Willy Sudiarto Raharjo -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I had suggested the possibility of introducing a second "gnome-online-accounts-legacy" and deps packages, where I could handle my deps with older versions, while a newer gnome-online-accounts moves on to support newer software. I practice, all we need is a stop gap to get us to next release, and keeping it on the older versions for now so things keep building and working properly with minimal extra work seems to be the way this is going, so you just have to wait till the revert next Saturday and Ozan you shouldn't need to do anything else regarding your packages. Once SBo can target the next slackware release, all this will go away and libsoup2 and webkit2gtk-4.0 can be forgotten. - Bob -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The URLs download fine (at least the 2 I randomly tried did) Because of the Content-disposition HTTP header. Try "wget --no-content-disposition https://github.com/redeclipse/wicked/archive/5a5f64e/wicked-5a5f64e.tar.gz", it will save the file as "wicked-5a5f64e.tar.gz". Now try it with "wget --content-disposition" and the same URL. It saves as "wicked-5a5f64ef53a54916ca29e2ea6ce8ffc5065a29b7.tar.gz". Using the full 40-digit commit hash in the URL prevents this: the file gets saved under the same name regardless.

It's only a "note", not an error or a warning. In the past (like, several years ago), we really did have problems with git stripping off the CRs in files like this, so this was a warning. Now it's just a 'note', and won't cause a sbolint to exit with error status. Possibly it's safe to completely remove this check. I downgraded it to a 'note' in version 0.9.6.2 (about a month ago). > | nexus: NOTE: nexus.SlackBuild:61: LIBDIRSUFFIX gets set, but never used. > This is a false positive. LIBDIRSUFFIX is used in a sed command Huh. You're right. I see the problem: sbolint is looking for the string "$LIBDIRSUFFIX" and not finding it, because it was written as "${LIBDIRSUFFIX}". I will make this check smarter.

Dropping webkit2gtk is fine by me as I no longer need it as a dependency for anything. -Ed From roberto.puzzanghera at sagredo.eu Fri Sep 18 11:58:25 2026 From: roberto.puzzanghera at sagredo.eu (Roberto Puzzanghera) Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2026 13:58:25 +0200 Subject: [Slackbuilds-users] Taking over nano-syntax-highlighting Message-ID: <192bf4b5-360a-443c-92ed-b52cb37da48e@sagredo.eu> I noticed that nano-syntax-highlighting is orphaned.

I tried re-building the only two direct deps (cryptography, and python3-cffi) with the stock python-cffi (not installing python3-cffi), and both seem to work. But python is a tricky language, it mostly fails at runtime, and I don't have enough resources to test all builds from here: https://slackbuilds.org/advsearch.php?q=python3-cffi&stype=revdep If your build is in this list, could you test that it works without python3-cffi having been installed?

When I try to launch either of them by clicking on their respective icons in Menu -> Accessories my XFCE desktop seizes up. Completely and irretrievably: even the clock applet in my top panel, which displays seconds, freezes up. The desktop becomes totally unresponsive to keyboard and mouse events. I cannot even reach other virtual terminals by means of Ctrl-Alt-F key. Short of rebooting the system, the only way out consists of ssh'ing from some other system and kill the desktop by hand. The thing is, if instead of clicking on those icons I launch the applications from a terminal emulator, both applications start up without any problems and my XFCE desktop keeps working with no issues. Another piece of data: after verifying that the Claude application is launching properly from a terminal emulator, I tried the following from a terminal emulator: nohup claude-desktop > /dev/null 2>&1 & This does not cause my XFCE desktop to freeze up, but the application never starts properly: I just get a white rectangle that stays up indefinitely, not responding to any mouse nor keyboard events. Since the XFCE desktop is still active under these circumstance it is easy enough to get rid of the white rectangle by killing the process above by hand. Something's obviously awry in the way these applications interact with my XFCE desktop, but I have no clue as to what. Any insights on what the problem could be, and how to fix it would be much appreciated. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Also popular, especially if upstream does not use releases or tags, is to bundle it all up yourself and host the tarball here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/slackbuildsdirectlinks/files/ You can ask the SBo admins for access. -kb From kenneth.t.chan at gmail.com Wed Sep 23 02:23:00 2026 From: kenneth.t.chan at gmail.com (Kenneth Chan) Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2026 14:23:00 +1200 Subject: [Slackbuilds-users] New orphans In-Reply-To: <7b9fa5dd-6e1e-8cfb-8b3f-4f7cd72fc8c@slackware.uk> References: <7b9fa5dd-6e1e-8cfb-8b3f-4f7cd72fc8c@slackware.uk> Message-ID: I'll take easystroke if it's still available. --- Kenneth On Sat, 25 Jul 2026 at 22:17, B.

A suggestion for you. I just looked at the SlackBuild... the README says: If you'd also like the manpage installed, then help2man needs to be installed and then pass COMPILE_MAN=yes to the slackbuild. If you look at the man page that gets generated, it's only 1709 bytes uncompressed... why not just include it (easystroke.1) in the SlackBuild directory, and install it unconditionally? mkdir -p $PKG/usr/man/man1 gzip -9c < $CWD/$PRGNAM.1 > $PKG/usr/man/man1/$PRGNAM.1.gz ...and get rid of the existing mentions of help2man in the README and SlackBuild.

I wasn't aware of this before seeing your message and testing this, so this is good info for the new maintainer. @Kenneth Chan, help2man is now part of Slackware, so I'd probably remove the conditional to build the man page and just do it automatically.

Watson intended with his email, but I didn't realize it until testing on my chroot.) Actually yes... I had forgot help2man is in Slackware, too. The generated man page is awful. The NAME section think the program is named "The", and it shows all the options twice. The trailer at the bottom of the page, which e.g. for ls(1) looks like this: GNU coreutils 9.5 March 2024 LS(1) ...instead looks like: The full easystroke documentatioSeptemberl2026 at the following address:THE(1) Also the header shows THE(1) as the program name (it should be EASYSTROKE(1)). This is a problem too for "man -k" aka "apropos". With the package installed, you'd expect "man -k gesture" to show you easystroke, but it'll find "The" instead. Not helpful... If it were my build, I'd fix that, even if it meant rewriting the man page from scratch (I'd write it in RST and use rst2man, nobody really wants to write raw troff). Alternately, if the broken man page bothers you and you don't care about it enough to write a new man page... just don't include it in the package at all. It's just the --help output. Better not to provide a man page at all, if it's broken. Yes, I'm being overly nitpicky. These are ideas, suggestions, don't take them as me trying to tell you what to do.

There's no silver bullet for writing README Note that README is used to show some information about the script, so you don't really need to include the WHOLE documentation or license. Simple one line is fine since it shows what the script is all about. If you need more detailed and technical note, that's fine too. Or you can make separate README.SBo that's also fine. I usually make README from what upstream provides in their README's project. That is enough to give information about the script and if users need more information about the project, they have a link to the project itself and see the complete docs. Also, repackaging doesn't mean it's bad. It's just another option of creating Slackware native package. Anyway, if you feel that it's bad for you, then you can simply not use it. That simple, no need to bash other people for contributing to the project. Not everyone has time and passion to track for dependencies and time to wait for perfect build or even enough hardware to build everything from source. As for the outdated script, i agree with that and it should be orphaned as the maintainer's last activity was 2 years ago. I will leave Urchlay to decide on orphaning scripts. -- Willy Sudiarto Raharjo -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

It's orphaned now, and I'll remove it next week if it's still orphaned. So anyone considering taking it over has a week to do so. The other one that maybe should go is zdoom. It's unmaintained upstream since 2017 or so. I kinda feel horrible even saying that...

Personally I've never used its man page and probably never will notice it without this discussion. So, I looked into it and turns out there's an easy fix (credit to AI). Simply adding '--version-string' option to the help2man command fixes it. The bigger question from me is, we all know the original thjaeger/easystroke is unmaintained since 2018. Other forks exist as compilation fix. Most other distros have either dropped the package or marked as orphaned so they're of not much reference. Arch uses the more "up to date" mrsteve0924/eaystroke fork (only minor patching needed). Considering the thjaeger/easystroke won't compile without extensive patching, should we use the mrsteve0924 or other forks? On Wed, 23 Sept 2026 at 17:29, B.

Considering?the thjaeger/easystroke won't compile without extensive patching, should we use > the mrsteve0924 or other forks? That's a decision for a package maintainer to make. I've done that in a few instances, start packaging up a fork that's gotten some fixes and new development. Example: Someone took the old zsnes project that had been unmaintained for like a decade and started working on it... and the latest version (that I just updated to) actually has all the x86 asm code rewritten in portable C, so you can build it on x86_64 without multilib now.

I installed it--looks good--but at this time am not maintaining audio SlackBuilds. From urchlay at slackware.uk Tue Sep 29 08:34:14 2026 From: urchlay at slackware.uk (B.

Personally, I don't like the thorium README because it reads like an advertisement. It just says "The fastest browser on Earth", and that's it. If it's a based on Chromium, it could mention that, at least. > ? ? ? ?

It was already on the chopping block. Martin Rodriguez is on my list of maintainers who appear inactive and haven't answered emails. Also, for his other remaining build (xcape), the upstream github project has been deleted, and the DOWNLOAD is 404. More evidence that he's not interested. That said, it looks like xcape is still useful (based on the description), so it would be nice if someone took it over. Did you, by any chance, try to email Martin Rodriguez yourself? If so, did you get an answer? If so, what did he say? If not, how long ago did you last email him?
