    Hey Robert!

    Thus far it appears we've pulled another upgrade without having to change a thing ... fidonet-wise that is.

    Linux version 6.15.7 (root@itsii) (gcc (GCC) 15.1.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.44) #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed Jul 23 07:19:29 UTC 2025

    All that and a brand spanking new bash (see tearline for gory details).

    Дуже груви,
    Maurice

    For once, I'm just one tiny step ahead of you!

    I should mark this down on the calendar, because it probably won't last long. ;)

    Regards,

    Hey Nick!

    In my defense this is the second machine to get a complete custum overhaul. I still have the EuroPoint to do, as well as the main network file distribution hub and parttime fidonet pointy system used for testing/verificatio purposes.

    Add to this, glibc-2.42 which should be released in the next week or two.

    because it probably won't last long.

    Agreed.
