Well, I think that we can mark that version as Beta. It does not contains
new features, but it was done a large work of bugfixes and improvements.
A special thanks is for phenixia2003 and yars068 for code contributing and
for many other for ideas and testing. It's the time for the tests, to find
for bugs or someother improvement.
- 'slackpkg search' if finds more duplicated packages with different
versions from many repository, now show all, marking it as "masked" the
packages that will not be installed due the priority
- Fixed a regression that drop PKGS_PRIORITY function in slackpkg upgrade
- Improved greylist. Also, now it allow to match the name in installed packages
- Fixed download GPG-KEY; it did not show the correct repository for gpg key
- Fixed previous patch for $ROOT problem (did broke 'slackpkg search command')
- Improved performance
- Fixed search that may fails to detect repository in certain conditions
- slackpkg search shows the repository name for the official repository
- Do not show notices when running slackpkg update or slackpkg check-updates
(thanks to yars068)
- Fixed a bug on x86 hosts when a repository contains also x86_64 packages
removed TABs from all files
- Remember user to (re)run 'slackpkg update gpg'
- Fixed Download Only when upgrade base packages (aaa_base, pkgtools...)
- Quick output on Cached Download
- Fixed a missed $ROOT
- Added SHOWORDER option. It's a way to sort packages in dialog box to help
reviewing large upgrade from many repositories. The SHOWORDER option
accepts "package" "repository" "tag" "path" "arch".

- Important fixes in the priority manager. Many thanks to all people that
reported the bugs and a Big thanks to phenixia2003 for the fix. Now we need
your help to test it.
Note for Slackware 14.1 users: slackware-current introduce important bug fix
in slackpkg 2.82.0-14 (see Slackware ChangeLog) not backported in slackware
14.1; it is not mandatory but you are encouraged to upgrade it by download it
manually; be sure to graylist slackpkg to avoid an automatic downgrade.
- The trailing slash in MIRRORPLUS[] is now optional (thanks to phenixia2003
and Didier Spaier)
- Added DOWNLOADCMD option to add a custom downloader
- Fixed a bug that causes that ALL repositories fail if ONE repository fails
(thanks to FR on Alien Pasture for reporting)
- Fixed TAG_PRIORITY to avoid impact in slackpkg install
- Added priority by tag. Setting TAG_PRIORITY to 'yes' slackpkg+
automatically upgrade packages from repository where the tag is the same
of the already installed package.
- Now the official repositories (slackware64, extra, patches...) are treated
as thirdy party repositories, so you can add it in PKGS_PRIORITY
(phenixia2003)
- To put an entire repository in PKGS_PRIORITY, you no more need to add
':.*' after the name (phenixia2003)
- Now ALLOW32BIT also auto-greylist the 32bit packages
- Added an install log in /var/lib/slackpkg/install.log; use
'/usr/libexec/slackpkg/makeinstlog.sh -t' to create a starting
install.log (it TRY to detect the repository)
