Now Slackware is having a problem installing opencv.
I know I downloaded the correct pkg from the Slack Builds repo.
Code:

From the looks of it I still need kde4-.
I took care of that-

I have already installed qaccessibilityclient.
Openvc would not install for me no matter what I tried.
I'll look for VRPN tomorrow. It's late-
I'm familuar with sbopkg's but not together with sqg. Could you elaborate on that?
sqg is a tool that generates queue files for the Slackbuilds you can find on SlackBuilds.org which can be used with sbopkg, so that you don't have to handle dependecies for those packages manually. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...or-4175451646/

The conditions for Simon is that you have a full install of the { KDE and Qt } from your install DVD.
A random mix of other than the original Slackware 14.1 packages will not work.
See post #15.

I tried putting the Slack DVD in the drive and pulled up the files.
How exactly do I use the Slackware installation cd to install what needs to be installed?
(never done that before)

Reason: Removed link as it didn't work
The Slackware DVD is in the cdrom drive and I'm trying with the terminal.
The CD/DVD is mounted-
Not sure why it's not working.......
Code:
bash: cd: /mnt/cdrom/kde: No such file or directory
bash-4.2# installpkg kde
Cannot install kde: file not found
bash-4.2#
I tried using pkgtool and choose install pkgs from some other directory and told the system to look in the cdrom.
It says the directory that you want to install from doesn't exist.?
/sbin/pkgtool: line 377: [: cd: binary operator expected
/sbin/pkgtool: line 404: [: cd: binary operator expected
/sbin/pkgtool: line 490: [: cd: binary operator expected
bash-4.2# installpkg kde
Cannot install kde: file not found
bash-4.2#
Code:
bash-4.2# installpkg qt
Cannot install qt: file not found
bash-4.2# cd /mnt/cdrom/./slackware64/kde
bash: cd: /mnt/cdrom/./slackware64/kde: No such file or directory
bash-4.2#
You have already used slackpkg in a previous post, which means it is correctly set up, so you can just forget about the DVD and install the (probably updated) packages from the configured mirror (and quite frankly, I don't know why the DVD was brought up in the first place).
Code:
slackpkg install kde
should work.
If you really want to install from the DVD and use installpkg you have to give installpkg the path to specific packages, it can't handle groups like slackpkg.
I strongly recommend to read up on package management in Slackware: http://docs.slackware.com/slackware:package_management
