## This file was created to explain some peculiarities of repositories used by the slpkg.
|
|
|
|
|
|
*NOTE: For more informations, refer directly to the repositories*
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Default repositories:
|
|
|
|
For the -current users who they use the sbo repository:
|
|
SlackBuilds.org (sbo) FAQ(15):
|
|
Slackware current is not supported, but as a general rule, the scripts
|
|
should work on it as well.
|
|
|
|
Rworkman's (rlw) repository use dependencies where displayed in a central site
|
|
'`http://rlworkman.net/pkgs/`' and only those. Unfortunately there is no fixed reference
|
|
dependencies in the file PACKAGES.TXT. You can make changes in '`/etc/slpkg/rlworkman.deps`'
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
Conraid's (conrad) repository must be used only from Slackware64 current users and it has no
|
|
reference dependencies.
|
|
|
|
Slackel.gr (slackl) repository must be used only from Slackware{x86, x86_64} -current users.
|
|
|
|
MSB (msb) repository has one ChangeLog.txt file for three sub-repositories {1.14, 1.16, latest}.
|
|
So if you have updated the list of packages with the version 1.14 and you want to switch to
|
|
version 1.16 you must run '`slpkg upgrade`' instead of '`slpkg update`'. MSB (msb) repository
|
|
has no reference to the dependencies. Similarly apply and for the repository Cinnamon (csb)
|
|
but with the different versions. Both repositories Mate and Cinnamon support Slackware -current
|
|
x86_64 but not x86.
|
|
|
|
Slonly repository don't support -current for x86 arch.
|
|
|
|
Alien's ktown (ktown), Alien's multilib (multi), Slacke E17 and E18, slack-n-free, csb,
|
|
mles and Alien's restricted repository has no reference dependencies.
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: For Alien's (Eric Hameleers) repositories (alien, multi and ktown) should run
|
|
'`slpkg upgrade`' instant '`slpkg update`', if you want to spend from -stable in -current or
|
|
not, because there is no different file '`ChangeLog.txt`' for each version.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Custom repositories:
|
|
|
|
There is the possibility of adding the repository directly from the user enough to address
|
|
the '`PACKAGES.TXT`' files and '`CHECKSUMS.md5`' at least. If not is there file '`ChangeLog.txt`'
|
|
will get warning messages that the '`ChangeLog.txt`' file can not be read but not worry, the process
|
|
is completed normally have each time you run the command '`slpkg update`' the package lists for such
|
|
a repository will be recreated from start automatically.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes you may experience some problems with these repositories such as the not correctly
|
|
resolve dependencies, and this may happen some specificities separate list which unfortunately
|
|
can not be calculated, good is the report these problems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Slackware ARM repositories:
|
|
|
|
Slackware ARM users will must use only two repositories at the moment slack and sbo.
