Pkgtool depenencies minimal slackware.


I setup a pretty minimal setup and was stripping a few packages out and realized pkgtool wont work now and far as I know nothing I removed seemd like it would be used by pkgtool. If I open it and select current remove etc it just closes back to console. I am wondering what packge pkgtool depends on so I can reinstall it. Any help appreciated.
Edit:
It could even be the dialog is crashing due to some reason. Not sure how to check that. I fixed it I just rebuilt it from source and It seems to work now, also I had a error not enough space left on device realized my /var folder was full.

Problem solved sorry I posted on here like that I was just dumb founded for a while.

You want:

tar, xz, bzip2, gzip, which, dialog, and ncurses (at least from my observations with using pkgtools with LFS)

at least.

Which is required most of all, but dialog can be skipped if you don't use the ncurses interface. Bzip2, gzip, xz, and tar are required also.
