Trying to install some software (64 bit version). I have symbols errors about libicui18n. Mtools-4.0.18 does not compile and a my previous version compiled in slacko64-14.2 does not work. Wxcam does not work, too. I have wasted time to install my brother laser printer: slackware does not support foomatic. I have solved with alien packages ending to reuse the expired 64bitinstaller by rcrsn51.

Fresh frugal to HD of the +1 update of the 64 bit version. The color scheme
is great! The only problem I've noticed is that Psync doesn't report the time
adjustments it makes. It looks kinda like it makes no adjustments at all.

With slacko 6.9.9.9 I was able to install qpdfview but it can't be found
in the repos.
Edit: Managed to get slackware64-14.2-extra (and others) added in PPM
and now have qpdfview installed.

Another thing I miss is the right-click-run-in-terminal feature phil has in
his creations, and (IIRC) you have in some of yours.

Was glad to see you doing this 64 bit slackopup version.

I am trying out a frugal install on hd of ScPup64+1 on a i5 laptop.
It works nicely. Looks like a classic modern Puppy.
I've always liked the feel of slacko and this definitely has that feel.

I only have one thing to report now.
The desktop icons for the partitions pile up in 1 place. There is the first partition, and then on the spot of the second partition a pile of all other partitions.
This also happens on your Bionic Pup.

@peebee
Concerning psync, it does not report the offset (the amount of correction
it had to make), so my quick usual way of testing cannot be done. My
usual way is to run psync twice to make sure that the offset the second
time is extremely small (on the order of a millisecond).

So I tried setting the system time in the BIOS off by a half hour or so,
and psync did correct the time. But I sure do miss the offset info, and
I think some users need accurate offset info for certain purposes.

I've remembered how the right clicks are added to UPup - it's via the ydrv...

The same ydrv (renamed) can be added to ScPup but there will be some menu entries that don't work due to missing apps.

Renamed .sfs are attached.

I'll put the requested "Run in Terminal" into the next builds.

============
psync - was reimplemented in Woof-CE fairly recently - needs a Woof-CE change request raising
