slackpkg and pktools missing after chroot-installation


Hi all.

I've installad Slackware64-14.1 into a partition via chroot and followed this old thread
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...chroot-825598/

Almost everything was fine, but slackpkg and pkgtools didn't got installed. It's not a big problem, I simply rebooted into my other installation, mounted the partition and installed them once again and everything was fine.

As in the old thread I simply mounted the partition, cded to slackware64 on the mounted installation medium and with installpkg --root /mnt installed the package serieses. After that bind-mounted /proc /sys /dev - then chrooted into /mnt, set the root password.

Did I forgot something to do, that those packages didn't got installed ?
I'm simply wondering, why it happens this way.

Greets,
Rebeka

Oh hell ...

.tgz is the keyword. Did it only on txz. Sorry, forget it - solved.

Probably you wrote
Code:
installpkg --root /mnt a.*txz ...
Instead of :
Code:
installpkg --root /mnt a.*t?z ...
But the packages names of slackpkg and pkgtools end in tgz, not in txz, that's why they weren't installed.

Oh, and the answer was at the end of the thread you followed

PS Slow typed, sorry...

Yes - I have to say, I didn't read the end of that thread well enough - maybe I've been too tired yesterday evening.
Directly after I've sent this new thread I've seen the mistake :-)
