Sbopkg is a command-line and dialog-based tool to synchronize with the

scripts to build Slackware packages. Sbopkg can also synchronize with certain
third-party repositories or access a locally-maintained repository.
Sbopkg (pronounced s-b-o-package) is a command-line and dialog-based tool to
synchronize with the SlackBuilds.org ("SBo") repository, a collection of
third-party SlackBuild scripts to build Slackware packages. Sbopkg can also
synchronize with certain third-party repositories or access a
locally-maintained repository.
Sbopkg will allow the user to create, synchronize, search, and browse a copy
of the active repository (currently, the size of a local copy of the SBo
repository is less than 50MB), read the ChangeLog (if available), list the
repository is about 70MB), read the ChangeLog (if available), list the
installed SBo packages, display potential updates to SlackBuilds.org packages,
view the README, SlackBuild, .info, and slack-desc files for each package, and
make manual edits to a copy of the original .info or SlackBuild files. Sbopkg
