Slpkg

Usage

Before you start to use slpkg need to run 'slpkg update' to synchronize the lists of packages, also every time you add a new repository.

To add or remove repositories you have to edit the file '/etc/slpkg/repositories.conf' or run 'slpkg repo-enable' (python3-pythondialog required).

Add custom repositories with the command 'slpkg add-repo <repository name> <URL>' and after run 'slpkg update' to update package list.

View list of repositories with the command slpkg repo-list or get repository information with the command 'slpkg repo-info <repository>'.

Update slpkg itself simply run 'slpkg update slpkg', and slpkg check from GitLab repository if the new version is available.

Checking packages health with the command 'slpkg health' and slpkg check if the files missing from the package file list.

View the dependencies status with the command 'slpkg deps-status' or draw image map dependencies with the additional option '--graph=[image]'.

Manage '.new' configuration files with the command 'slpkg new-config', like remove, overwrite, merge etc.

If you have already downloaded the script and the source code you can build the package with the command 'slpkg -a <sbo_script.tar.gz> <sources>'.

Manage the packages in the blacklist with the command 'slpkg -b <packages> --add or --remove'.

Add the SBo packages to the queue with the command 'slpkg -q <packages> --add or --remove' and manage as build, install or build and install with the command 'slpkg build or install or build-install'. This is very useful if you want to install multiple packages together, suffice to add in the right order if there are dependent packages.

View list of the packages from specific repository with command 'slpkg -l <repository>'. Combine with the command 'grep' to catch the results you want.

Check and upgrade your distribution or upgrade your packages with the command 'slpkg -c <repository> --upgrade'. Don't forget to update the packages lists before (for the 'slack' repository it's not necessary). This command except upgrade the packages will fix the packages with the broken dependencies. Switch off the automatic resolve dependencies with the additional option '--resolve-off'. Use '--checklist' option to help you to choose easy the packages. For advanced users, the option '--skip' give them more power (see manpage).

The most famous command is 'slpkg -s <repository> <packages>', this command downloads, build and installs packages and resolve all the dependencies or switch off resolve with the option '--resolve-off'. Also the additional option '--case-ins' help you find the packages with case insensitive. Two new arguments, help you to rebuild '--rebuild' or reinstall '--reinstall' packages. The last one argument '--patches' help you to switch in the 'patches/' directory, only for the slack repository.

Tracking the dependencies of a package with command 'slpkg -t <repository> <package>', displays a package dependency tree and also shows to you which ones are installed on your system events. Check if the packages used from other packages with the option '--check-deps' or draw image map dependencies with the additional option '--graph=[image]'.

Get information description of a package with the command 'slpkg -p <repository> <package>' and change the color of the text with the additional flag '--color=[]'.

View a SBo package page on your terminal with command slpkg -n <package> and then manage multiple choices such read, download, build, install etc.

If you want to find a package of all the repositories, this command will solve your hands 'slpkg -F <packages>', it will search in all the enable repositories and will print all the packages that match the description that you enter.

If you want to see if any packages are installed on your system enter the command 'slpkg -f <packages>'. The option '--third-party' help you to view only the third-party packages

The next three commands 'slpkg --installpkg, --upgradepkg, --removepkg <packages>' install, upgrade, remove packages from your system events. Notable mention you must give in the command 'slpkg --removepkg <packages>' which you can remove the packages with all dependencies together after editing configuration file '/etc/slpkg/slpkg.conf' (default is disable) or add additional option '--deps'. Also you can check if the packages they are used as dependency with additional option '--check-deps'. Option '--tag' allow to remove packages by TAG. Optional you can use the dialog utility with the additional option '--checklist' (require python3-pythondialog). Rmove third-party packages with the option '--third-party'.

The command 'slpkg -d <packages>' is useful to print the entire contents of a package.

Some examples you will see below.

Slpkg Examples

Enable or disable default repositories, edit '/etc/slpkg/repositories.conf' file or with the command. (require pythondialog, install with 'slpkg -s sbo python3-pythondialog'):

$ slpkg repo-enable

If you use slpkg for the first time, you will have to create and update the packages lists. This command must be executed to update the packages lists:

$ slpkg update

Slackware package maker, version 3.14159.

Searching for symbolic links:

No symbolic links were found, so we wont make an installation script.
You can make your own later in ./install/doinst.sh and rebuild the
package if you like.

This next step is optional - you can set the directories in your package
to some sane permissions. If any of the directories in your package have
special permissions, then DO NOT reset them here!

Would you like to reset all directory permissions to 755 (drwxr-xr-x) and
directory ownerships to root.root ([y]es, [n]o)? n

'LibreOffice is a productivity suite that is compatible with other major\noffice
 suites, and available on a variety of platforms. It is free\nsoftware and there
fore free to download, use and distribute.\n\nThis script builds a Slackware pac
kage from the official binary (RPM\'s)\ndistributed by The Document Foundation.
 Everything needed by the\napplication should be built statically into it, so th
ere aren\'t any\ndependencies not satisfied by a normal installation.\n\nBe sure
 to look at the script for some optional things you can do when\nbuilding.\n\nNO
TE: See the separate SlackBuild script for the language packs.\n\nNOTE2: To keep
 LibreOffice installed concurrently with OpenOffice, run the\n       included "o
pen-libre-together.sh" script saved in the documentation\n       directory of th
is package to patch the .desktop menu files.\n\nNOTE3: LibreOffice versions chan
ge quite often. If the version for which\n       this script was written is no l
onger available, look for it at:\n       http://download.documentfoundation.org/
libreoffice/old/stable/\n       It will go there after the next release.\n
 You can also try building the newer version using:\n       # VERSION="x.y.z" ./
libreoffice.SlackBuild\n       This *might* work, but upstream has a habit of ch
anging the naming\n       and structure of the files, etc. between versions, so:
 YMMV.\n'
