Slackware Pkg Mgr lists test package


Installed Porteus just today .. which accesses Universal Slackware Package Manager. It lists as downloadable and installable an item:

test-package-name-1.2.3-x86_64-1.txz

and I would like to know what it is before ... well, .. you know.

Thank you in advance.

you are asking in the wrong place: Slackware is not Porteus and does not use that package manager neither it provides that package.

the Porteus support forum is here

Thank you for the redirect. The Universal Slackware Package Manager title led me here. I will head over to Proteus.
