Cool Sbopkg for 14.1 is available


Many thanks to the maintainers of sbopkg; they have released version 0.37.0. Sbopkg is one of my all time favourite utilities.

Thanks, hitest! Glad that you are finding sbopkg helpful.

Also, after installing the latest version, folks might want to check out the 'sqg' script in /usr/doc/sbopkg-0.37.0/contrib that can be used to create sbopkg queuefiles -- though I realize that I forgot to update REPO_BRANCH in the top of the sqg script so change that to 14.1 and you should be good to go.

chess,
first of all thanks you very much for sbopkg and sqg. These two have made things much easier.

Have you considered an option to call the sqg script from the sbopkg menus? May be in some future version of sbopkg?

Installed and works beautifully now I will not have to spend countless hrs trying to keep my SBO packages updated. One question though... If I create a local mirror is there a way to just download the packages that I have installed rather than a full copy of SBO?
