Slackpkg not installing daw (daw.template)

I have just installed Slackware64-15.0 on a Fujitsu Lifebook, intel i-7, updated, installed latest kernel, installed slackpkgplus with the enclosed config file, downloaded daw.template (https://slackware.nl/people/alien/to...s/daw.template) and ran:
Code:root@lifebook2:/# slackpkg install daw

Looking for daw in package list. Please wait... DONE

No packages match the pattern for install. Try:

/usr/sbin/slackpkg reinstall|upgradethen I thought I had a memory of once doing

Code:root@lifebook2:/# slackpkg install dawand got
Code:root@lifebook2:/# slackpkg install daw.template

Looking for daw.template in package list. Please wait... DONE

No packages match the pattern for install. Try:

/usr/sbin/slackpkg reinstall|upgrade

root@lifebook2:/#I had the template initially at Code:~/Slack_Store/daw.templatethen I moved it to
Code:~/Slack_Store/myrepo/daw.templateand then tried adding
Code:REPOPLUS=( slackpkgplus restricted alienbob myrepo)
MIRRORPLUS['myrepo']=dir://home/arthur/Slack_Store/myrepoto the configuration file.
In every case I ran
Code:slackpkg install dawand
Code:slackpkg install daw.templatefrom both ~/ and the directory containing daw.template and in every case I got exactly the same result as above.

I am probably missing some silly small detail here, but I have been unable to catch it by myself, so I once again turn to my gurus at LQT!
