latest slackpkg broke update?


Hi,

I just update my current with the new slackpkg-2.83.0-noarch-1.txz.

It seems after that I no longer be able to use command
slackpkg upgrade-all any more, I got the following error:

DONE

No packages match the pattern for upgrade. Try:

/usr/sbin/slackpkg install|reinstall
Anyone got similar problem? I also got slackpkg+-1.7.0-noarch-5mt installed.

After removed slackpkg+, it seems working fine again. Maybe slackpkg+ needs update.
