Hi,
problem is well described in here
https://forum.manjaro.org/t/android-pho ... ting/34347
All things, as i understoond, boils to the point that in Salix 14.2 quite big number of packages are outdated compare to present day.
For example package gvfs version is 1.26.3-x86_64-1.
The last version in Slacware64-current is gvfs-1.42.2-x86_64-1.txz
So it is just one example.
Is it possible to get more recent versions of some packages of interest in Salix 14.2 from Slackware current or Slackel?
What mirror to use in this situation and how that don't upgrade whole system but still remain
compatible and consistent with general system autoupdate or Gslapt?
how to change source file /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc ? One in use looks like that:
WORKINGDIR=/var/slapt-get
EXCLUDE=^aaa_elflibs,^aaa_base,^devs,^rootuser-settings,^zzz-settings.*,-i?86-
SOURCE=http://download.salixos.org/x86_64/slac ... /:OFFICIAL
SOURCE=http://download.salixos.org/x86_64/slac ... /:OFFICIAL
SOURCE=http://download.salixos.org/x86_64/14.2/:PREFERRED
SOURCE=http://download.salixos.org/x86_64/extra-14.2/:OFFICIAL

It is, but you really shouldn't. Noone can predict what might break.user_salix wrote: ↑11. Dec 2019, 20:46 Is it possible to get more recent versions of some packages of interest in Salix 14.2 from Slackware current or Slackel?

Re: Mass storage devices do not disappear from Thunar after disconnecting
If really you want a newer version, the best thing to do would be to download the source files for the packages from a mirror of Slackware current or Slackel then build the package yourself. This works often, but not in all cases. Caveat: be aware that in the SlackBuilds for Slackware current there is often this code snippet: If it is present, remove or comment out the second line, as else already installed packages that depend on this one will probably fail. Which is one more reason not to install an upgraded package not intended for Salix but instead rebuild it yourself.
Code: Select all
# Don't package .la files:
rm -f $PKG/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}/*.la
