aaa_base: Basic Linux filesystem package.
aaa_base:
aaa_base: Sets up the empty directory tree for Slackware and adds an email to
aaa_base: root's mailbox welcoming them to Linux. :)  This package should be
aaa_base: installed first, and never uninstalled.

aoutlibs: can be found in /usr/i386-slackware-linux-gnuaout/lib.

bash:     GNU bash-2.03
bash:
bash:     The GNU Bourne-Again SHell.  Bash is a sh-compatible command
bash:     interpreter that executes commands read from the standard input or
bash:     from a file.  Bash also incorporates useful features from the Korn
bash:     and C shells (ksh and csh).  Bash is ultimately intended to be a
bash:     conformant implementation of the IEEE Posix Shell and Tools
bash:     specification (IEEE Working Group 1003.2).

bzip2:    bzip2 version 0.9.0c (a block-sorting file compressor)
bzip2:
bzip2:    Bzip2 compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler block sorting text
bzip2:    compression algorithm, and Huffman coding.  Compression is generally
bzip2:    considerably better than that achieved by more conventional 
bzip2:    LZ77/LZ78-based compressors, and approaches the performance of the PPM
bzip2:    family of statistical compressors.

bzip2:    Julian Seward <jseward@acm.org> is the author of bzip2.

cpio:     The GNU cpio backup and archiving utility v. 2.4.2
cpio:
cpio:     This is GNU cpio, a program to manage archives of files. This package
cpio:     also includes mt, a tape drive control program. cpio copies files into
cpio:     or out of a cpio or tar archive, which is a file that contains other
cpio:     files plus information about them, such as their pathname, owner,
cpio:     timestamps, and access permissions. The archive can be another file on
cpio:     the disk, a magnetic tape, or a pipe.

find:     GNU findutils-4.1
find:
find:     This package contains the GNU find, xargs, and locate programs.
find:     find and xargs comply with POSIX 1003.2.  They also support some
find:     additional options, some borrowed from Unix and some unique to GNU.

getty:    getty_ps 2.0.7j
getty:
getty:    /sbin/getty and /sbin/uugetty. 
getty:    These control the process of logging into your system, and may be used
getty:    instead of 'agetty', which is the default getty included with the
getty:    util-linux package. getty_ps supports a number of enhancements such as
getty:    ringback support.
