Slackware Linux 13.37 RC3


The third release candidate of Slackware Linux 13.37 is ready for testing: "We'll call this Slackware 13.37 release candidate 3. It seems like most of the important pieces are in place now." The above message comes from the Current ChangeLog which was updated earlier today. Other interesting items found in the log include upgrade to Mozilla Firefox 4.0 ("Thanks to the Mozilla Foundation for all the hard work on Firefox 4.0!"), rebuild of sysvinit-scripts ("In rc.6 use -f when unmounting remote file systems to avoid getting stuck in the case of a dead server."), and addition of Google Chrome to the "extra" repository ("Added a Google Chrome SlackBuild to convert the Google Chrome DEB packages for Slackware. Also added GConf and ORBit2 packages for Google Chrome in this directory."). Quick links to the recent unofficial installation DVD images (built 22 March): slackware-current-22_Mar_2011-DVD.iso (1,972MB, MD5), slackware64-current-22_Mar_2011-DVD.iso (1,929MB, MD5).
