Works like a charm. I didn't even expect it to compile when I saw yellow warnings saying something like "This is almost certainly NOT what you want!". Thanks a lot for the package.

Is actually using Connman as a network manager a viable choice?

I use it on a laptop and have noticed it sometimes doesn't pick up access points but I don't use that machine often enough to know if it's a big deal or not.

I have been able to not reinstall already installed software (such as orc, gstreamer1, lua...). But now when going further the script stops with an error :
liborc is not found in /usr/lib64 (I have it in /usr/local/lib).

If you have run sqg -a with SKIP_EMPTY uncommented at some point, you have queue files for each package, which requires answering p for package or q for queue file on each dependency from sbopkg.

Code:
Both a queuefile and a package were found with the name "gstreamer1".

Use (Q)ueuefile, (P)ackage, or (A)bort?:
I did a quick look at the --help of sbopkg, and it seems there is no option to specify which you'd prefer.

I'm wondering if a better option is to pass a queue file directly to sbopkg, although, I suppose that could cause redundant builds if someone already has the program installed.

Maybe it's worth it for me to bring these limitations of sbopkg to the developer...

As to e19, I'll let you know when it's done building and I have a chance to play around with it
You can fix this by prepending sbopkg with:

Code:
echo p |

What package is saying that? You may need to feed an extra configure flag in one of the SlackBuilds, given that abnormal path.

I don't remember which package, but I will try again.
I have been used orc and lua for many years, for example orc is used in clementine, ffmpeg, mplayer, mpv, opencv, vlc and so on. All this is built from source and I don't make slackware packages. And then installed in a directory (/app) and links are made to /usr/local, using a very useful program called 'spill'. In this way I do not touch at all my slackware system.
I think that it would be better if it was not assumed that a dependency is installed in a fixed place. In general configure scripts don't do that, and try to find where the dependency is.

This sounds like quite an undertaking, but I am definitely open to pull requests. ;^)

For some reason I am having a Brain Fart (again)!

My Enlightenment e19 works awesome and last night I managed to create links/icons to Apps from my App tree and put them on my desktop! Now I for the life of me can not recall how! Since when does drag and drop not work?!

Has there been any changes to this process? I am thinking of installing E19.

I just updated it for 1.12.3/0.19.3.

Everything should work the same, check the README. :-)

Just got through trying to run your process... its failing with

==================[ begin snip ]==================================
checking for EDBUS... no
configure: error: Package requirements (ecore >= 1.7.10 eina >= 1.7.10 dbus-1 >= 0.62) were not met:

No package 'ecore' found
No package 'eina' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables EDBUS_CFLAGS
and EDBUS_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

e_dbus:
Would you like to continue processing the rest of the

package is a dependency of another package in the queue
then it may not make sense to continue.

I followed the instructions in the README... so ... am i missing something?

Do you have sbopkg installed?

Obviously you have sbopkg installed. I messed up the build order when I switched to the SBo e_dbus. I'll have a fix out soon, just testing it now.
