slackbuild directories


Where do slackbuild scripts put all their stuff? Because I was compiling QT4 with a slackbuild script and after like 10 years it finally got to the end I think and it was creating the tar.gz file in /tmp I think and then my stupid athlon overheated and my computer turned off. So I got an air compressor and blew all the dust out of the cooling fins and started over. But the script started completely over from the beginning like it hadn't done it all already.

My athlon's overheated before when compiling manually and when restarting make just skips all the files it already compiled. I wonder the slackbuild script doesn't do that.

SlackBuild script stores compiled packages in /tmp directory. When you start it for the consecutive time it removes old files and starts to work from the beginning.

The final package should be in /tmp. Slackbuild scripts should wipe everything clean and
start from scratch every time they are ran. But the package should still be there.
