It's better to upgrade everything from patches/ because it's possible that
for example seamonkey has been built against some other upgraded package
there.

Either download every *.txz package from patches/ and then as root,
'upgradepkg *.txz'.

Or you can use slackpkg to do it automatically. No need to download packages
manually. Uncomment one 15.0 mirror from /etc/slackpkg/mirrors, for example
https://mirrors.slackware.com/slackware/slackware-15.0/, then 'slackpkg
update' and then 'slackpkg upgrade patches'.
