-For now, the xcowsay SlackBuild remains one version behind the latest
-release. This is because the latest (1.5) release doesn't work for
-everybody.
-
-Starting with version 1.5, xcowsay requires a compositing window manager
-that supports alpha channels. This build is for version 1.4, the last
-one which works correctly with traditional window managers such as
-WindowMaker or FVWM. Version 1.4 also works fine in environments where
-1.5 would work. If you *really* want version 1.5, download its source
-to the SlackBuild's directory and build it with a command like:
-
-# VERSION=1.5 BUILD=1 TAG=_custom ./xcowsay.SlackBuild
-
-Hopefully, some future version of xcowsay will make the compositing
-support optional (and maybe even autodetected), so this script can be
-updated to track new xcowsay releases again.
