Here is my slackpkgplus.conf

# Enable (on) / Disable (off) slackpkg+
SLACKPKGPLUS=on

# set to '0' to never show the download progress bar
# set to '1' to show the bar only in download packages (default)
# set to '2' to show always show the download bar
VERBOSE=2

# Enable (1) / Disable (0) the official slackpkg blacklist. May be useful to temporarily skip
# the slackware blacklist. You can also override it from command line:
# 'USEBL=0 slackpkg upgrade-all'
USEBL=1

# from which repository you prefer to search it.

# Accepts regular expressions. To give priority to an entire repository use "<repository_name>:.*"

# Examples:
#PKGS_PRIORITY=( restricted:vlc )
#PKGS_PRIORITY=( myrepo:.* )
#
# If you want a multilib system, uncomment the multilib repository and set:
PKGS_PRIORITY=( multilib:.* restricted:.* alienx86:steamclient alienbob:.* ktown:.* )
#

# List repositories you want to use (defined below)
# remember to launch 'slackpkg update' if you modify that row.

As it didn't find an update perhaps there is a fault in my conf file.

You need to add this in your slackpkgplus.conf

Code:

# By default slackpkg+ deny to install 32bit packages.
# Set this flag to 'on' allow slackpkg+ to install 32bit packages on a 64bit slackware 
# installation (possibly unsafe). Please, do not install both 32 and 64bit of the same 
# package to avoid problems, and NEVER upgrade exitant 64bit packages with relative 32bit package.
# Do not forget to install the multilibs.
ALLOW32BIT=on

Do no forget to run "slackpkg update"

With that, keep in mind that if you have 64-bit packages installed, "slackpkg upgrade-all" could offer to upgrade some of these to 32-bit version. This is a drawback that should, if possible, be fixed.

[expletive] I thought that I'd added that stanza. Working perfectly now.

THANK YOU BOTH!!!!!
