It has not been updated for quite some time. I quit using SlackOnly over a year ago.

There is a copy of all the packages on my mirror at: http://slackware.uk/

When the slackonly rsync access went down I contacted the chappy who runs it - this was a couple of months ago now.

He informed me that he was taking rsync access down in order to rebuild all the packages, as they'd not been updated in a while. I suspect web access to the packages has been disabled for the same reason.

He also stated that it was just a temporary takedown, but the rsync access has not come back in at least a couple of months.

I have sent repeated emails to ask what's going on, but have yet to receive a reply.
I'll update this thread if I get one...

Thank you for the reminder. I'll update slackpkg+ with this mirror for now.
