slackpkg prefers SBo over slackware64
by naikin from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6K1WX)
In my /etc/slackpkg/blacklist I have added this line to avoid wiping out my SBo packages when I call slackpkg clean-system.

This seems to lead to some problems though as slackpkg would end up preferring SBo packages over system packages in some rare cases. For example, say package X is currently not part of the official slackware distro, but is available on SBo. I install package X from SBo. Some time later package X is added to the official slackware distro. However, since I have it already installed, slackpkg upgrade-all and slackpkg install-new completely ignore it and keep the unofficial X-SBo package on my system. This can lead to some nasty problems and recently broke my system.
My question is: How can I make slackpkg always prefer the packages from the official distro and upgrade SBo packages in the above example? Thanks.
PS. I am also using slackpkg+, but as far as I am aware, it doesn't make a difference in this case.
