Rep: Reputation: 0 One question, how was slackware used before slackpkg?

One question, I know that slackpkg has existed for almost 20 years. But how was it done in the past before using slackpkg for system updates? How were packages installed, for example, that I removed?

Did you have a script? Another question is whether you still use this method without slackpkg and why? Show me examples? Thks
