How to start

Edit repositories

If you are going to use only the SlackBuilds.org repository, you don't need to edit the /etc/slpkg/repositories.toml file, otherwise edit the file and set true the repositories you want.

$ slpkg update

Now you are ready to start!

or change the repository:

$ slpkg remove <package_name>
