GSB 2.30 and 2.28 for Slackware 13.1 Coming Soon!

Posted 2010/05/19 @ 11:25 CST

Folks - Slackware 13.1 is almost out (in RC status) and GSB 2.30 and 2.28 will both be available for it within days of the official 13.1 release! Stay tuned!

Project Updates!

Posted 2010/04/01 @ 10:01 CST

We have a very stable build system for GSB 2.28 and the upcoming Slackware 13.1 release. This week we've also started a new branch for GSB 2.30 and Slackware 13.1. This means we may have two releases for the upcoming Slackware 13.1 - GSB 2.28 and 2.30. However, we are still seeking volunteer contributors and developers to help us!

The upcoming Slackware 13.1 release also marks the last Slackware version for which we will provide multiple GSB releases. Our newer release policy will be one GSB version per one Slackware version. We will provide patches and updates as usual, for the latest stable GSB version.

Building GSB 2.28 for Slackware -current

Posted 2010/03/07 @ 10:15 CST

Folks, as Slackware -current ramps up with tons of updates, we're furiously trying to build GSB 2.28 against it. We could use some help. If you're interested in helping build and fix issues, stop by our IRC channel and let us know. We *don't* need feature requests or bug reports. We need HANDS-ON folks that will test the build and fix the issues. Find us in #gsb in irc.freenode.net

GNOME SlackBuild64 2.28.1 for Slackware64 13.0 now in gsb64-current

Posted 2009/11/23 @ 00:04 GMT

gsb64-current has been updated to the first maintenance release of GNOME 2.28.1. It is a rather late announcement, since gsb64-current has been up on servers for a while now, but it never hurts to announce it to the world. gsb64-current will be more closely kept in step now with gsb-current since the built cycle has finally caught up. Please give it a try if you're using Slackware64!

GNOME SlackBuild 2.28.1 for Slackware 13.0 now in gsb-current

Posted 2009/10/26 @ 23:28 GMT

gsb-current has been updated to the first maintenance release of GNOME 2.28.1. It's had lots of testing, and can be considered largely stable and useable, but packages may still change here and there. If you're looking for the latest GNOME, please give gsb-current a try and help out by reporting any bugs!

Also, a full gsb64-current build has been finished, and will be hitting servers soon! Keep an eye on the mailing lists for fuller details. :^)
