Re: Salix Xfce 14.0alpha1
Confirmed that installing udisks package fixes auto mounting disks. Thanks for the info.
Re: Salix Xfce 14.0alpha1
A new salix-codecs-installer package is in the repos. That should fix the not-removing-itself bug.

Homepage first topic link bad, not a 14.0alpha1 (only 13.2alpha1).

What really matters is where you are going, not where you come from.

Great news...
Can I upgrade my existing 13.37 64-bit installation to 14.0alpha1?

Satish.

Re: Salix Xfce 14.0alpha1
I am running Salix Xfce 14.0alpha1 for package building purposes and was wondering if will eventually become a rolling release (current) or a fixed realease (14.0). I was also wondering whether or not, I should be excluding kernel upgrades for the purposes of package building.
Re: Salix Xfce 14.0alpha1
Hum, not sure if it's still topic-related, but you must not exclude the kernel packages when building packages for current.
And -current is not a rolling release. It's a bit like "sid" in Debian. It's the name of the developping branch for the next version. When Slackware/Salix 14.0 will be out, current ⇒ 14 and there will not be any -current branch anymore. Then this 14.0 version will only receive updates for security reason or bugfixes, as usual with stable releases.

Thanks JRD for informing those of us who were targeted by this alpha release, of the need to update kernels for package building.gapan wrote:These installation images are in alpha state and are mainly targeted at developers/packagers.
Re: Salix Xfce 14.0alpha1
So should we remove the kernel exclude? I'm not running current as I write, but i seem to remember kernel packages are excluded as normal.
The one I can imagine changing is kernel-firmware.
