pkg/slackpkg+-1.8.0-noarch-1mt.txz: Upgrade
Hello, World! Slackware 15.0 was finally released so slackpkg+ has
been adapted, so we can release Slackpkg+ 1.8.0 final release. Also
some third party repositories are ready. A notice: starting from now
/slackpkg+/ official repository will contain slackpkg+ 1.8 (an alias
o /slackpkg+15/ repository, unless you are using wget/curl/lftp from
slackware 14.2; in this case the site automatically show slackpkg+1.7.
You can put https://slakfinder.org/slackpkg+/ for historical reason
in slackpkgplus.conf, but you are encouraged to use
https://slakfinder.org/slackpkg+15/ or /slackpkg+dev/ instead it.
I thank everyone for contributing by reporting bugs or new proposal.
Special thanks to those who maintain the repositories, that make
slackpkg+ useful.
+-------------------------+
pkg/slackpkg+-1.8.rc3-noarch-1mt.txz: Upgrade
- Give a chance to disable the packages cache purge.
- some cosmetic report (thx to marav)
- small issue trying to clean cache directory
- A minor in slackpkg info on sbo packages
- Generated 1.8 branch on github and slakfinder repositories
- New repository /slackpkg+1.8/ and a dynamic repository /slackpkg+/
that automatically select a release for slackware 14.2 o 15.0
pkg/slackpkg+-1.8.rc1-noarch-2mt.txz: Upgrade
- Advice to run /var/lib/pkgtools/setup/setup.vi-ex if some upgrade
delete the /usr/bin/vi link (may happens upgrading from 14.2 to 15.0)
- Protect from slackware downgrades in case of wrong slackware mirror
selected.
- Report in /var/run/needs_restarting if some upgrade needs a reboot
(from a non-release feature of slackpkg)
- zlookkernel.sh does not try to configure grub, just re-configure if
it is already configure
+-------------------------+
Checks if a critical package were upgraded by Slackpkg.
The /var/run/needs_restarting file contains the list of upgraded
packages.
The file only is created if /var/run filesystem type is tmpfs so
the reboot will clean it
Upgrading from 14.2 to 15 some packages (elvis, vim, nvi) may remove
the symlink /usr/bin/vi, but only the nvi package automatically
recreate it.
The slackware 15.0 installer uses /var/lib/pkgtools/setup/setup.vi-ex
to allow user to choose which editor to use.
pkg/slackpkg+-1.8.rc1-noarch-1mt.txz:
Slackware 15.0 rc3 has been released, declared as 99% freezed.
Slackpkg too has had many changes, fix and improvement, and it's the
time for slackpkg+ 1.8 to be declared ready. See the CHANGES in
documentation for all improvements.
- Regression on (not-needed) gpg key check on dir:/ repository
+-------------------------+
pkg/slackpkg+-1.7.11-noarch-2mt.txz:
- Automatically download gpg key if needed if STRICTGPG=on.
If STRICTGPG=off you need to manually run slackpkg update gpg every
time you add a new repository.
+-------------------------+
updated documentation
pkg/slackpkg+-1.7.11-noarch-1mt.txz:
- zlookkernel.sh also supports grub (thanks to RezaT4795)
- repositories.lst updated
- Added "comma" syntax. Now you can add a comma (,) at start or at end
of packagename to match the exact name, so "libreoffice," does match
the "libreoffice" package and not the libreoffice-dict-* ecc. for ex:
slackpkg upgrade libreoffice,
slackpkg install alienbob:libreoffice,
slackpkg download libreoffice,
slackpkg search libreoffice,
slackpkg install libreoffice,
will look for libreoffice only, without match libreoffice-dict and
all other libreoffice-*
slackpkg by default match grep -w packagename pkglist
pkg/slackpkg+-1.7.10-noarch-1mt.txz:
- According to slackpkg 15.0.9, automatically rebuild package lists if
missing or not build by slackpkg+
+-------------------------+
0 Successful Slackpkg execution.
1 Something wrong happened.
2 Something fatal happened. (not available in slackpkg)
20 No package found to be downloaded, installed, reinstalled, upgraded
or removed.
50 Slackpkg itself was upgraded and you need to re-run it.
100 There are pending updates.
Please: do not ignore the fatal output!
pkg/slackpkg+-1.7.8-noarch-1mt.txz:
- New feature: CHECKDISKSPACE=on in configuration enable checking
diskspace before download and install packages
- Fixed an issue on zlookkernel when /boot/vmlinuz is a symlink to another
symlink
Add CHECKDISKSPACE=on in slackpkgplus.conf
Note:
to download it will check $TEMP path (/var/cache/packages by default)
to install (and only install, not for upgrade) it will check $ROOT/usr
filesystem since MOST (not ALL) files are there.

pkg/slackpkg+-1.7.6-noarch-9mt.txz: Rebuilt
- Just updated repositories in documentation and in sample config

may not work properly. So it's important update slackpkgplus.conf
