- Added code to parse a list with the .new files and the default
action to do.
- Added post-functions.conf file to hold the aforementioned list
and possible future configurations.
- Updated the SlackBuild to install the post-functions.conf file
We decided to jump from 2.83.x straight to 15.0 to match the
version of Slackware for which it's intended: 15.0
That's not to imply that this version of slackpkg won't work
just fine with earlier Slackware releases: it should; however,
you definitely want this version of slackpkg for Slackware 15.0
This should fix blacklisting of entire package sets; thanks much
to David Woodfall (dive) for this. Note that the sample blacklist
file has changed to reflect the new syntax for blacklisting sets
(add a trailing slash, e.g. "kde/")
- Allow blacklisting of individual packages without collateral
damage (e.g. glibc ---> glibc-*). This changes the prior behavior
of the blacklist function; previously, adding "glibc" to the
blacklist would cause glibc, glibc-profile, glibc-zoneinfo, et al
to be ignored by slackpkg. The new behavior is that *only* the
glibc package is ignored. If you want to blacklist all packages
whose names begin with glibc, you would need to add "glibc.*" to
the blacklist now. Also note that any special characters, e.g. "+",
will need to be escaped in the blacklist file. (David Woodfall)
