I'm not sure I understand completely. With the default settings, there are two issues that I can see:

1) `slackpkg update` always acts like there are updates, even when there's nothing to update.
Specifically, on every run (with VERBOSE=3) I see something like this:
Code:
Files //var/lib/slackpkg/CHECKSUMS.md5.asc and /tmp/slackpkg.9Nstx0/CHECKSUMS.md5.asc differ
But why should they differ if nothing changed? On the user end, the outcome is that unlike with regular slackpkg, I never see this prompt anymore:
Code:
No changes in ChangeLog.txt between your last update and now.
Do you really want to download all other files (y/N)?
2) `slackpkg check-updates` pulls the whole ChangeLog
With the default slackpkg+ settings, `slackpkg check-updates` will download the entire ChangeLog from each repo to see if there are updates. That's pretty inefficient/slow, couldn't slackpkg+ just use the method of comparing cached vs upstream CHECKSUMS.md5.asc file on both 14.2 and -current? Or at a minimum, use that method if slackpkg-15 is detected?
I could not fix it becouse slackpkg+ 1.7.0d0 had to work both with slackware 14.2 and slackware 15, and the fix is an huge patch.

Now that slackpkg+ 1.7.1 no longer supports slackware 14.2, I can fix it.

please test that release

Code:
# wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zuno/slackpkgplus/test/src/slackpkgplus.sh -O /usr/libexec/slackpkg/functions.d/slackpkgplus.sh
It works for me. If it works for someother I will package it as 1.7.3 (not today since it's my birthday :party:)

Sounds like a good idea not to try and support 14.2/15.0 at the same time, too much work!

I tested the new code, seems to work nicely for the official Slackware packages when I did `slackpkg update`, but it didn't check any of my other repos (slackpkg+dev and alienbob), even though SLACKPKGPLUS=on.

Thanks for looking at it though, check it out whenever. And happy birthday ! :party::cool:

Happy birthday.


I use slackpkg+ with third-party repositories and tested the new release.
"slackpkg update" works as advertised (question appears if nothing changed) and "slackpkg check-updates" is much quicker.

Thanks for the continued good work on slackpkg+.

The dialogue box is back for me too, but does `slackpkg update` check all your REPOPLUS for updates before asking that? For me it's only checking the main Slackware repo (and not alienbob or slackpkgplus repos, which I have set in slackpkgplus.conf).

check-updates is super fast too, very nice!

Now that it appears the error code from slackpkg is fixed, can we get that in slackpkg+?

This is what I get now.
Code:
slackpkg check-updates ; echo $?

Slackpkg: Updated packages are available since last check.

  [ Repository              ] [ Status              ]
    slackware                    AVAILABLE UPDATES

    slackpkgbeta                    Up to date       
    slackpkgplus                    Up to date       
    multilib                        Up to date       
    restricted                      Up to date       
    alienbob                    AVAILABLE UPDATES

Code:
SLACKPKGPLUS=off slackpkg check-updates ; echo $?

Slackpkg: Updated packages are available since last check.

Edit: Using a patched version of slackpkg-15.0.1_testC-noarch-1

Yes it does.

You can see that slackpkg+ cycles through the repositories I have defined in my slackpkgplus.conf.

Without CACHE option, it's the same:

I take it back, the problem was not with slackpkg+ but my configuration. Not sure exactly what, but I reset to a standard config and set things up again, and it works nicely:

Which configuration you had?

drgibbon 02-28-2021 09:39 AM
I got rid of /etc/slackpkg/slackpkgplus.conf and started fresh, but looking again I probably didn't chmod +x the new slackpkgplus.sh in /usr/libexec/slackpkg/functions.d/ the first time around, since chmod -x on it produces the same behaviour I was seeing. In any case, there's no problem with slackpkg+.

rworkman 02-28-2021 01:46 PM
Does this address all of the issues with vanilla slackpkg? https://slackpkg.org/slackpkg-15.0.1_testD-noarch-1.txz

slackpkg-15.0.1_testD-noarch-1 does not add the fix, so I will wait to add to slackpkg+

zerouno 03-01-2021 02:34 PM
slackpkg+-1.7.3-noarch-1mt.txz released in slackpkg+dev branch

I had to read your post a few times. LOL.

My excuse? This post. LOL

I was testing and saw a "0", then after reading again. :doh:
