Setting up Slpkg for Slackware Current
by Sylvester Ink from LinuxQuestions.org on (#534RP)
I'm having a similar problem as described in this post:
https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...es-4175664918/
I had a fresh install of Slackware 14.2, which I updated to Slackware-current using slackpkg. I installed Sbopkg and set it up to track -current, then used it to install the latest Slpkg. (I know it's odd to have 2 extra package managers like that, but it's worked fine for me on my 14.2 setup.)
In any case, I set up slpkg.config as instructed:
Code:RELEASE=currentThen I ran "slpkg update". Unfortunately it still seems to be using the 14.2 repository. I also ran "slpkg upgrade" to rebuild the logs, but that didn't help either.
