checked it beforehand and
kept a logfile from my installation to be able to check for errors
but all the file names of slackware distribution packages are plain ascii
within the range of 32-127 and without special chars
I can't imagine a LC_COLLATE value that can mangle this
If I was documenting it or scripting it, I'd always add the aaa* packages
first, specificially to avoid any file name sorting issues since I've had
the problem in the past. If it works for you without doing so, great :-)
better on the safe side, it's always good to mention this
/broken/ filenames are common in mp3 archives, where the file names are
created from the mp3 tags, but I had never problems with original slackware
package names

Hrothgar is also the name of the Danish king whose mead house Heorot was
invaded by the Grendel, and all the warriors inside were killed. So Beowulf
ripped off his arm (Grendel's, not Hrothgar's). Pre-English literature is so
much better than the new stuff.
