EDIT2: Replacing /usr/lib64/python3.9/lib-dynload/pyexpat.cpython-39-x86_64-linux-gnu.so with one from older 001-core seems to fix this issue

Replacing /usr/lib64/python3.9/lib-dynload/pyexpat.cpython-39-x86_64-linux-gnu.so with one from older 001-core seems to fix this issu

here's the relevant slackware changelog entry:

Code: Select all

patches/packages/python3-3.9.19-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update fixes security issues:
  bundled libexpat was updated to 2.6.0.
  zipfile is now protected from the "quoted-overlap" zipbomb.
  tempfile.TemporaryDirectory cleanup no longer dereferences symlinks when
  working around file system permission errors.
  For more information, see:
    https://pythoninsider.blogspot.com/2024/03/python-31014-3919-and-3819-is-now.html

    https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-6597
  (* Security fix *)

changed behavior of the bundled expat?

I like the updates to the new 001-core and 002-xorg 64bit modules ncmp. Did the pmod & slapt-mod changes get made to other scripts also?

you mean --help not requiring root? not so far.

[Ed_P]

you mean --help not requiring root?

[i3slkiller]

Okay, maybe that solution didn't seem particularly good for me, but I noticed something else:

Where does this discrepancy in the libexpat versions between 001-core and 05-devel come from (although I'm guessing that porteus creators just forgot to update expat)?

Where does this discrepancy in the libexpat versions between 001-core and 05-devel come from (although I'm guessing that porteus creators just forgot to update expat)?

nice catch :0 thanks
ok, what's happening is libexpat in 001-core comes from aaa_libraries. (and 05-devel is from expat)
which is a slackware installation necessity so that it's there for stuff linked to it while the early packages are installed.
later in the process it's overwritten by the expat package.
which would be why the aaa_libs package hasn't been updated since any patch upgrade of expat comes later, after installation.
for the most part, apparently, that old libexpat has been/is fine for the stuff the needs it... until now.
now, why expat was put in devel instead of 001-core, i don't know.. i mean, it didn't matter much until expat patch updates started coming in, and now in particular this python update linking to it.
tldr: expat will be moved from 05-devel to 001-core.
(and the one in devel is also out of date :p )

[Ed_P]

A small update for 001-core is now available (as of May 10)

Booting stops and requires me to signin as root to run startx.
Booted system doesn't have my /guest/home/ files & folders whether as my save.dat file or as my changes.xzm module.

[Ed_P]

The 240511 001-core update works fine in the new 240521 Cinnamon ISO.

Thank you ncmp.
