slackpkg install-new on -current question.
by lagavulin16 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5JDBX)
Good evening, dear community.
At the beginning of May, I installed the beta version of -current from Alienbob's daily iso.
No problems so far, except one thing. Today I decided to update it, and when I typed install-new, then slackpkg offered me the whole list of kde5 packages and some of the xap packages, which I unchecked during installation (I'm using XFCE). I opened current's changelog and noticed then there only one package has been added since my installation (libgnt). So I unchecked all packages except libgnt. After successful updating of my system, I ran install-new again out of interest. And it suggests me the whole kde5 again.
Man says that install-new should offer all recently added packages SINCE my last update.
What I'm doing wrong? It's not a big pleasure to uncheck the whole kde every update (+some xap apps). Thanks in advance!
