- I've been following SLS releases of Linux for some time now, and am currently
- running SLS Linux 0.98pl5.
-
- I notice that more and more stuff is being bundled with SLS, some of it
- containing README files from the original source, and patches. The README
- files are a bit confusing since they sometimes refer to things that have to be
- done (including applying patches) to install the package that SLS may have
- ALREADY done. I therefore can't tell whether to apply patches or not. This
- is particularly true of dosemu and NFS.
-
- Could someone mail me (or post, if they feel it is warranted) a current
- list of what the SLS release includes and in what STATE it is included (i.e.
- bundled, installed, etc.)?
-
- Much appreciated,
-
