Slackware 14.2 multilib - Unable to upgrade mpd via sbopkg

Hello,

i try to install the new mpd package which is available on the SlackBuilds site. When i installed the previous version i had special build options, which i can see in SboPkg. It prompts me if i want to use them, i select to use the local build file but it fails. I had a look at all the files, which SboPkg is using, there is no reference of the old version. Nevertheless Sbo fails. Here is the output:

Code:

Building package for mpd...

mpd:

Would you like to continue processing the rest of the

queue or would you like to abort?  If this failed

package is a dependency of another package in the queue

then it may not make sense to continue.



(Y)es to continue, (N)o to abort, (R)etry the build?:

The file

Code:

mpd.SlackBuild

contains the new version of mpd. There is also a file

Code:

mpd.SlackBuild.sbopkg

which contains the old version of mpd.

The original SlackBuild you edited was for version 0.19.17, the new .info file downloads version 0.20.1. So, when the modified SlackBuild goes to extract the source, it tries to extract the non-existent 0.19.17 instead of the downloaded 0.20.1.

Most likely, all you'll need to do is change the version at the top of the SlackBuild, but if the maintainer made other changes to the SlackBuild (patches, sed lines, configure options, etc), the build may still fail since you'd be using an older version of the SlackBuild. In that case, it might be best to discard your older version of the SlackBuild and modify the new one to match the options you want.

Well i could not upgrade mpd via SBopkg GUI. I did it manually. I downloaded the SlackBuild and the source, unzipped it and then i executted the .SlackBuild file:
ISO9660=yes SOUNDCLOUD=yes RECORDEROUTPUT=yes ZZIPLIB=yes ID3=yes FLAC=yes SQLITE=yes ./mpd.SlackBuild
