Slackware 15.0 Release Candidate 1

Posted on Aug 17, 2021 by kingbeowulf


After a week if nail biting silence, the first release candidate dropped for Slackware 15. From the changelog announcement:

1...GCC was bumped to version 11.2.0 (because we just can't send this out 2 versions behind),
2and everything was verified to build properly or fixed up so that it did. I don't see any benefit 
3to another public mass rebuild, so we're not going to do one. Anyway, without further ado, here
4is Slackware 15.0 release candidate one. Consider most things frozen and the focus now to be
5any remaining blocker bugs. We'll more than likely take that next Plasma bugfix release, but it's
6soon time to get off this treadmill. Enjoy! :-)

As always, details are here: Slackware ChangeLogs as well as a the ever amusing commentary over on https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/slackware-15-0-rc1-4175699211/
