[slackintosh-users] Slack 12 Upgrade

Hi,

I'm having two issuies when upgrading to slackintosh 12.0. I'm currently
doing this on a scratch partition which is a copy of my root filesystem
for the system itself.

My first issue is actually with slapt-get and the patches directory. I noticed
there are meant to be additions according to the wiki, but they aren't
in the patches directory, e.g.:
e.g.:

These are the following variables i have in my slapt-getrc
SOURCE=http://slackintosh.workaround.ch/pub/slackintosh/12.0/patches
SOURCE=http://slackintosh.workaround.ch/pub/slackintosh/12.0/extra
SOURCE=http://slackintosh.workaround.ch/pub/slackintosh/12.0

When I run slapt-get --install -y sudo I get the following:
After unpacking 0kB of additional disk space will be used.
Get http://slackintosh.workaround.ch/pub/slackintosh/12.0/patches/ sudo 
1.6.8p12-powerpc-2 [138kB]...Failed to download: The requested URL returned 
error: 404

I'm not well versed in slapt-get but I certianly don't see any reference
to sudo except in the changelog in the patches dir.

Anyone know what I might be doing wrong here, or are they not up yet?

My other issue which is more important, is that gcc doesn't seem to work.
(On a quick sidenote, my upgrade path was basically using slapt-get to install
glibc-solibs, aaa_base, aaa_elflibs, pkgtools, sed, glibc-*, a couple of
other things, and gcc.)

It just won't compile, e.g.:

$ echo 'int main(){}' > t.c; gcc -o t t.c
/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-slackware-linux/4.1.2/../../../../powerpc-slackware-linux/bin/ld:/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-slackware-linux/4.1.2/../../../libc.so:
 file format not recognized; treating as linker script
/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-slackware-linux/4.1.2/../../../../powerpc-slackware-linux/bin/ld:/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-slackware-linux/4.1.2/../../../libc.so:5:
 parse error
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I also tried applying the -m32 option and I get the same effect.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Naveen Nathan

Anyways, if
