According to Slackware-Current change logs those packages were upgraded at 3 August. I guess they will fix it soon.
Lucky me I didn't update the last few days

HP laptops used to bind all function keys to multimedia, brightness, etc by default (and they probably still do so). This caused all shorts of problems. There should a BIOS setting to turn this off and make function keys behave normally, with multimedia functions bound to Fn+F<number> instead of F<n...

From the presentation: "Απαιτείται πολύ δουλειά να συντηρείς μια διανομή, πράγμα που δεν φαίνεται στους χρήστες" meaning: "Maintaining a distribution is a lot of work, and that's not apparent to the users" As a programmer myself, I can guess it is a lot of work. But since I never...
