now you have a 64 bit fop…or you can download it here:

drunkensailor.org/software/fop-0.95-slackware64.tar.gz

i have my ant available here:

drunkensailor.org/software/ant-1.6.5-slackware64.tar.gz

*both of these are just meant to be unpacked where you want to run them from and require some funky or full paths. feel free to make a real slackware package and i’ll host it, but for now it’s just compiled binaries alongside the source.

**the ant package is not the most current version of ant(1.7.something) because it required JUnit.jar which i dont have or plan on having (not part of the official slackware jdk)
