# This file tracks changes to the SLS distribution file # Perms.fix no longer exists. To do upgrades, read this # file and obtain all the packages that have been listed # as changed. Most important among these are the z?fix.taz # packages, which aren't really packages as much as they are # collections of patches and fixes. To apply, just download # onto your linux disk and use: # # sysinstall -install zafix.taz # sysinstall -install zbfix.taz # ... # # And all should be well. If you are getting SLS for the # first time, this will all be done for you automatically. # # Hopefully, this will greatly reduce the amount of internet # traffic in order to apply simple permission type fixes, or # single executable replacement amoung large collections. # It also allows people to just fix those series that they # have installed, so if they don't have X, no problems. # # PS: Note that the [mv] and [rm] in updates indicate that a # package has be moved or deleted respectively. # # Peter # pmacdona@sanjuan.uvic.ca 920901: Initial release (.96p4). Didn't use jump tables though. 921007: Release .98p0. Jump tables used. 921011: menus.taz: new sysinstall and sysbuild. a1: New .98p1 image with new sysinstall a2: New rootdisk image.taz: 0.98p1 kernel, Fixed top. devs.taz: modified /dev directory image.taz: Linux .98p1 image, ps, etc. lx96p1.taz: Linux source for .98p1 (replaces lx98.taz). tcpip.taz: Telnet and fpt 2.2.2 binaries. c4/: Added new disk, clisp to compiler series. x*: Reorganized and fixed double compressed fonts. 921017: Permission problems fixed, mainly by the files a4/zafiz.taz, x7/zafix.taz. Or just get Perms.fix. Serial ports were renamed to be 0's based (ttys0, ttys1, ...). Added link of linux source include to /usr/include. If missing .h files like , look in /usr/src/linux/include. Note C++ must be linked "cc -nojump" for now. TCP is there but kernel must be recompiled (no whining please). Also telnet/ ftp are linked 2.2.2. Couldn't find source. Fix dev/kmem permission to fix ps/top, etc. 921023: b5/*: New disk added to provide Man pages that got omitted. Remove b4/install.end.

Look in /usr/src/lilo. b5/man2.taz: section 2 manpages + a new whatis ~300 lines long. x8/*: New IV images idraw and doc.
