yes i belive slackware really need gentoo portage, not just precompile build converters to ebuilds from slackbuild scripts, its sad to see notes on blacklist what not to blacklist, was a hint on what to do if it breaks from 14.x to 15.x :)

install this tarball, and do a ldconfig solved it for me, it have to be done fully without slackpkg in the first place, then after ldconfig all should work again

then do the remaining part as

slackpkg update

edit mirror file and make sure we keep 64bit !!!!!

slackpkg upgrade-all
slackpkg install-new
slackpkg clean-system

if new kernel do

lilo

reboot

 MK> As for other distributions who cares?

gentoo is more simple :)
