It's Friday the 13th, and Mercury is going into retrograde...  seems like the
perfect time to break things!  A few notes are in order here...   first, we've
switched to using openssl-1.0.1c, which changes the major number for the
crypto and ssl libraries from .0 to .1, meaning everything linked with the
previous version of openssl will need to be recompiled.  The
lib{crypto,ssl}.so.0 libraries were backed up into aaa_elflibs, but this only
means that binaries linked with those libraries will start, not that SSL will
continue to work for them.  The hashing format in /etc/ssl/certs/ has changed,
so any programs linking to the old libraries will not be able to use them.
Next, Java has gone away due to licensing restrictions...  Finally, these
changes have broken Xfce as it exists in -current at the moment, but I'll try
to do something about that soon.  Thanks to Robby Workman and Eric Hameleers
for lots of help on these updates!

  Changes to configuration:
  CONFIG_SCSI_ISCSI_ATTRS=m
  # CONFIG_BCMA is not set
  CONFIG_BRCMSMAC=m
  CONFIG_SCSI_ISCSI_ATTRS was made modular since the iSCSI userspace will not
  work with it built in.  This change disallows building the QLogic 40xx
  (ISP4XXX) and 8022 (ISP82XX) into the huge kernel, but for the same reason
  those would not have worked for installation anyway.
  CONFIG_BCMA was turned off because including it prevents building the
  Broadcom BRCMSMAC driver, which is the only working choice for several
  adapters other than the proprietary wl driver.  Unfortunately, removing
  BCMA removes support for bcm4331 from the b43 driver.  However, adding the
  BRCMSMAC causes several new adaptors to gain support, including some that
  are becoming quite common in recent laptops, so overall this change should
  be a net gain.

Juggle a few things around so that slackpkg won't fall over while upgrading
from 13.37 or an earlier -current:
a/aaa_elflibs-14.0-x86_64-2.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Don't include libcrypto.so.0 and libssl.so.0 in here.
  The openssl-solibs package is a better place for them.

a/mkinitrd-1.4.7-x86_64-2.txz:  Rebuilt.
  According to rworkman, udev is indeed required now in early boot for any
  system using an initrd, so we'll set UDEV=1 in mkinitrd (leaving -u as a
  no-op).  This should clear up the issues with the /init script that
  expected udevadm to be present.
  Use ldconfig -l to ensure all shared libraries have the correct symlinks.

a/sysvinit-scripts-2.0-noarch-2.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Changed /etc/inittab to clear consoles after logout (actually before
  starting /bin/login from agetty *except* for the first console with the boot
  messages.  This seems a good compromise, and also prevents getting locked
  out of the machine if someone drops back to an earlier version of util-linux
  for some reason.  I found that one out the hard way.  ;-)
a/ntfs-3g-2012.1.15-x86_64-2.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Made /bin/ntfs-3g setuid root, because otherwise it refuses to allow

a/util-linux-2.21.2-x86_64-2.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Use --enable-libmount-mount, not --enable-new-mount.  The latter option

Howdy!  Lots of shiny stuff here, including the long awaited Xfce 4.10!
Thanks to Robby Workman for the initial set of build scripts, and lots
of testing (plus some very helpful notes about things such as the proper
build order).  I'm calling this a beta (finally!), and it's really very
close to what we expect to release.  Test away.
BTW, Mercury leaves retrograde on August 8th, position 01:26 Leo.  ;-)
a/aaa_elflibs-14.0-x86_64-3.txz:  Rebuilt.

  Show the date after setting the system clock.
  Thanks to Darrell Anderson.
  Shut down udev in rc.6.  Thanks to Robby Workman.
  In rc.S, determine the actual root partition and insert it into /etc/mtab
  so that "/dev/root" isn't shown when booting a kernel without an initrd.
  I should have fixed this years ago.
a/udev-182-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
  Well, udev in this devel cycle has certainly been interesting!  A fair
  number of odd bug reports have been coming in, and we hadn't really been
  able to get a handle on the source of the issues.  Quite some time ago
  we started testing udev-182, and noticed that it caused some issues with
  the persistent net and cd rules.  There'd sometimes be two entries per
  device, so a machine with a single Ethernet card might come up showing the
  card as eth1, with two rules in 70-persistent-net.rules (eth0 and eth1).
  We tested a lot of udev versions trying to determine where the problem
  started, and it seemed to begin with version 176, the first one that
  used libkmod rather than calling out to module-init-tools to load modules.
  Asking upstream about it, they suggested that we just turn the generation
  of persistent rules off.  They'd already turned it off by default.  "Make
  'em make rules!" seemed to be the answer, and since I remember well why
  the autogeneration of net and CD rules came about, I wasn't really happy
  with that answer.  After deploying the "safe" upgrade to 175, we got a
  couple of reports of this same issue happening (though none of us could
  reproduce the issue with 175).  Robby ended up making some patches to
  the rule writing scripts for udev-182 that were able to stop the doubling
  up of rules, but the devices themselves would still be misnumbered on the
  first boot without rules, and would then be correct after a reboot.
    Last week I sat down determined to figure out where the race condition
  was.  After endless reboots with various tests, I got the idea to put my
  network modules on the initrd and have it shell out so that I could take
  a look at them.  What I found was that the rules were generated correctly
  on the initrd.  Well, that was a surprise, but I must have had some kind
  of hunch to even try a test like that.  On another hunch, I ran
  "pstree -c -p | grep udevd" on the running system.  Heh.  There it was.
  We had been running two copies of udevd, and they were fighting it out.
  At some point along the line, udevd was changed.  It used to be that if
  you tried to start a second copy it wouldn't start, and would exit with
  status 1, and our rc.udev script relied on this behavior.  Fixing the
  problem was considerably easier than finding it...  rworkman and I made
  some changes in rc.udev to check if udevd was already running instead
  of expecting it to check for itself.  Another change was required to
  cause it to write out rules if they didn't exist already, and then to
  read them back in (otherwise optical symlinks were still missing on first
  boot without rules).  There's still one issue that was also present with
  udev-175, which is that a hotplugged optical drive won't get symlinks
  unless it has been in at boot and had rules generated for it then.
  Otherwise, things are looking considerably better.  Firmware is loading
  correctly, rules are autogenerated properly again, and several devices
  that were missing in /dev have returned.
    So, there's the story.  Maybe more than you really wanted to know.  ;-)
  Thanks to rworkman for his help on this.  Please report any new problems.
  And if anyone knows how to get symlinks working for a hotplugged optical
  drive like they did in udev-165, a fix would be most appreciated.
