This file was created to explain some peculiarities of repositories used by the slpkg.
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default repositories:
|
|
---------------------
|
|
For -current users use 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 central site
|
|
'http://rlworkman.net/pkgs/' and only those. Unfortunately there is no fixed reference
|
|
dependencies file PACKAGES.TXT. You can make changes in /etc/slpkg/rlworkman.deps file.
|
|
|
|
Slackers.it (slackr) repository must be used only from Slackware64 current users
|
|
and 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 {1.6, 1.8, 1.10}.
|
|
So if you have updated the list of packages with version 1.8 and want to switch to version
|
|
1.10 then run "slpkg upgrade" instead of "slpkg update". MSB (msb) repository has no reference
|
|
dependencies.
|
|
|
|
Slonly repository do not support -current for x86 arch.
|
|
|
|
Alien's ktown (ktown), Alien's multilib (multi), Slacke E17 and E18
|
|
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 not different file 'ChangeLog.txt' for each version.
|
|
|
|
Custom repositories:
|
|
--------------------
|
|
There is the possibility of adding the repository directly from the user enough to address
|
|
up to be the 'PACKAGES.TXT' files and 'CHECKSUMS.md5' 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.
