hi @Neustradamus ,

this is a repository with patches that let Slackbuilds scripts shipped by SlackBuilds.org, that provides third-party build script for the latest Slackware stable, build on the latest Slackware current (the development version of Slackware), it's not actually the the place for discussing new scripts. if you wish to have minizip-ng substitute minizip on SlackBuilds.org you should get in touch with the maintainer of minizip asking him if it's ok for him to switch to it (he will have to verify that everything using it as a dependency still keep working after the switch). but if you wish to submit it neverthless you can either submit yourself a build script for minizip-ng mentioning that it's an alternative to minizip (if I understand the scope of the project correctly) following the submission guidelines. for libzip-ng the thing is a bit more complicated as libzip is already integrated in the distribution and many things are built against it but if libzip-ng can work as a drop-in replacement for the shipped libzip (1.8.0 ATM in stable) you can submit a script for that too mentioning it. let me know if you need further clarifications about the matter.

@Ponce: Thanks for your answer!

There is no possibility to create a ticket here:

I have not an answer from Daniil Bratashov since several years (2019-01-21) and minizip has not been updated :/

And no zlib: https://slackbuilds.org/result/?search=zlib&sv=

The goal is to have all packages.

It is new code, new packages, differents from original minizip and zlib always developed.

There are:

Original MiniZip place:

zlib master branch:

zlib develop branch:

Thanks in advance.

https://github.com/SlackBuildsOrg/slackbuilds is just a mirror of the official SBo repository. You can send PR there, but only for updates, not new scripts. All new scripts should be submitted using the submission form as explained by Ponce.

Daniil Bratashov is still active, his last commit was last month. Try contacting him again. Your previous mail could end up in SPAM

@willysr: Thanks, a new email has been sent to @dn2010 after this answer from 2019.

Hello.

Some time ago I wrote here that I want to cancel minizip maintenance. It is no longer a mandatory requirement for Gwyddion that I continue to maintain and unfortunately I have less and less time left. If anyone wants to take over minizip support from me, that would be more than welcome.

WBR, Daniil Bratashov.

thanks for the answer @dn2010 ! @Neustradamus : as Daniil made it available you should be able to pick up maintainership of libminizip, migrate to minizip-ng, and test the new build script with the stuff we have on SlackBuilds.org that depends on it. after you checked that all is ok you can submit the updates via the submission form on SlackBuilds.org.
