I'm on my slackware system right now. Here's the contents of /etc/issue
and I left this as the out of the box default:
Welcome to \s \r (\l)
I had to do git close with the line in the installation notes to get
org-mode to update. The git program refused to overwrite the original
Makefile. So having done that I ran make all sudo make install sudo
make install-info and there were no errors or warnings of any kind.
info org tells me org documentation is at 7.6 now too.
