   I mostly use the DVD if I have it, I don't have an upto date DVD of   
   slcakware-current but I will when 15.0 is released.

   The upgrade doc is still for 14.2. Slackware-current is bleeding edge so it   
   has to be handled with care.   
      
   Slackware has no idea about dependencies, slackpkg just updates packages as it   
   sees them.   
      
    RF> libc upgrades are a bitch.   
      
   Yes. I think 15.0's libc is updated now so smooth sailing from here. I hope!   
      
    Ttyl :-),
