The wicd project doesn't seem active indeed. Last release was at 2016, but that alone doesn't make it deprecated. However, I see unanswered bug reports in wicd's website too. The project seems to be dormant at best. I used Wicd for more than 10 years, even before I migrated to Slackel and Salix. It ...

Since 21 July, wicd stopped working: pap[~]$ wicd Traceback (most recent all last): File "/usr/share/wicd/daemon/wicd-daemon.py", line 48, in <module> import dbus ImportError: No module named dbus Now, my educated guess is that dbus-python was upgraded on 21 July, and the new version is no...

It was probably a temporary repository problem. I updated my systems a few hours later than bsd4me, I noticed pango was updated,but no issues at all.

Άντε τώρα να συγκρίνεις αυτό με τις "live" ερμηνείες συγκροτημάτων που δεν ξέρουν καν μουσική γιαυτό παίζουν μόνο ντάμπα-ντούμπα και στριγγλίζουν αντί να τραγουδάνε, με δεκαεξάρικα "fans" από κάτω να στριγγλίζουν εξίσου.

I didn't update yesterday so I didn't have the bugged version. Today the repos are updated to the dj version of alsa-lib, and pavucotrol does see the HDMI port.. Thank you Dimitri!

Nice to see how it all started. Thank you for sharing, Dimitri.
I will definitely attend FOSSCOMM 2021.
P.S.: I like the old "snail shell" logo, but I am used to the "sigma" logo anyway.

For users might have this problem with elogind and suspend. Did you put these to /etc/elogind/logind.conf to stop suspended after few secs ? HandleSuspendKey=ignore HandleLidSwitch=ignore Try setting both and then try setting just one of them to figure out which one it is causing the problem or bot...

I tried it. I had to create a ~/.profile because it doesn't exist (not only in that 32-bit installation, but in all my Slackels there is no ~./profile). It does indeed prevent screen blanking after some minutes without user activity, but does not stop elogind from constantly suspending the computer ...

Another error only on 32bit if gnupg2 is installed slapt-get -u segfaults So for now i had to uninstall gnupg2 to be able to upgrade the system. It is really strange if gnupg2 is installed running sudo gdb slapt-get then type run --update i get Program received signal SIGPIPE, Broken pipe. 0xb795d6...

Solved. I looked up at Slackware-Current change logs before posting here, but it wasn't clear icu4c was the problem.
Thank you Dimitri!
