i used slapt-get to download and install abiword but it fails as it needs X11 > 7.0 (or 7.1) but when i try upgrading X11, slapt-get refuses to upgrade to new version and says that your version is up to date.

I think that's a bad package. ( I may have built that on a dirty box.)
I also thought that was re-built by someone else. I can no longer maintain it because I do not have a clean install anymore.

This issue is still unresolved. I got the same results trying to install abiword into VL 5.8 SOHO. Yes, the version out there works with stock X.org. It's merely a matter of changing the slack-required file. I could probably do that and resubmit the package if the original package maintained cannot.

I will re-build the package in a clean install to get rid of this issue... Please hold ..... <background music>
EDIT:
< Stop background music >
The package has been fixed
slapt-get --update and slapt-get --install abiword should do it now

It's fixed for SOHO but now broken for Standard due to a freetype 2.2.1 dependency. Either freetype in Standard needs to be upgraded or the slack-required file needs another change  Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. -Cait |

I think this is a problem that has happened with a number of packages, I think we may need to separate the repositories for 5.8 standard and 5.8 soho.....

Thanks for the info caitlyn. By the way, does everything work correctly if you use the --no-dep option of slapt-get? At least for the X11 and Freetype dependencies? If yes, then it will just be a matter of fixing abiword's slack-required. I'm very sorry for not taking care of this sooner, but time is rather limited for me right now. Tomorrow is Saturday, so I can spare some time to getting this fixed.  |

Yes, it works just fine with --no-dep. As you say, probably correcting the slack-required file would do it. I'm just wondering if bringing the version of freetype up to the same level as SOHO may be a better approach to avoid problems with other packages.

I've fixed the slack-desc files for both abiword and goffice, and they both install in SOHO and run correctly too.
Thanks for the feedback everyone!
