LinuxQuestions.org - [SOLVED] Slackpkg+ : can't get search results from SBo -current, and trouble downloading changelogs maybe?

I am running Slackware64 -current (fully updated as of today) and I am having two issues with slackpkg+-1.7.9-noarch-1mt

1) First issue: If I understand correctly I should be able to search for SBo packages through slackpkg+ (though not actually install). However I can't seem to get SBo search results from ponce's -current repo using the default URL provided in slackpkgplus.conf

Code:

SBO['current']=https://cgit.ponce.cc/slackbuilds/

For example, if I search for xmonad, nothing comes up, though it exists at https://cgit.ponce.cc/slackbuilds/tree/desktop/xmonad

Code:

root@slackpad:~# slackpkg search xmonad



Looking for xmonad in package list. Please wait... DONE



No package name matches the pattern.

SBo search DOES seem to work for 14.2 however, using the preconfigured repo @ https://www.slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/14.2/

2) Second issue might not actually be a problem, but when running 'slackpkg update gpg' and then 'slackpkg update', there seems to be a lot of 404's when trying to download ChangeLog.txt from the preconfigured repos, in my case 'alienbob' and 'restricted' specifically. (again, this is with slackpkg+)

I am however still able to successfully run 'slackpkg search alienbob' and get results, so this one might just be noise :)

Code:

https://slackware.nl/people/alien/sbrepos/current/x86_64/ChangeLog.txt --> BAD

https://slackware.nl/people/alien/sbrepos/current/ChangeLog.txt --> BAD

...

https://slackware.nl/people/alien/sbrepos/ChangeLog.txt --> OK



https://slackware.nl/people/alien/restricted_sbrepos/current/x86_64/ChangeLog.txt --> BAD  

https://slackware.nl/people/alien/restricted_sbrepos/current/ChangeLog.txt --> BAD

...

https://slackware.nl/people/alien/restricted_sbrepos/ChangeLog.txt --> OK

Here is the full output of my slackpkg updates (verbose=3) and my slackpkgplus.conf

slackpkg update gpg
slackpkg update
slackpkgplus.conf

Thanks in advance for any clarity you can provide
