V15.0.18 Slackware 15.0 Stable - February 2022
Hello again! We're glad to inform you that Slackware 15.0 stable release has finally arrived.
Here's the official announcement.
So accordingly, we're here with a new release as well. Happy (W)SLacking!
What's new in WSLackware 15.0.18:
- Updated rootfs base to the latest Slackware 15.0 stable release.
- Added 177 new packages in order to extend the functionality of the system and reduce the possibility of missing dependencies. For a full list of installed packages, see
Packages.txt
- Added Slackpkg+, it is an extension for Slackpkg which adds several features, like the ability to use multiple 3rd party repositories along with the official repository.
Note 1:
The recommended package to install is the Appx package (WSLackware_15.0.18.0_Appx.zip
).
Note 2:
We've added a lot more packages in this release to make sure it's good enough for a normal everyday use, but it's still not a full installation of Slackware.
It's meant to be a barebone release, so there might be still some missing dependencies for some non-essential programs in some RARE cases!
We've made sure the users can download and install any packages they need, so incase you encountered an error about missing libraries while you tried to run a program, you can easily download and install them using slackpkg
, or find, download and install them manually with pkgtool
.
