correct me if am wrong: instead of using slackpkg to update or upgrade, regardless of slackware upgrading to new release(version change) or system updates(for patches) i need to follow the text files you gave right?

You don't have to, but follow UPGRADE.TXT if you are upgrading from 14.1 to a new release (like 14.2 or -current if it diverged from the last release a lot). Use slackpkg to patch a stable system (i.e. fetching and applying updates from patches/) or for tracking -current once you're running it (but updating -current requires more care than keeping a stable release up-to-date).
