slpkg : SlackBuild.org package manager

rizitis · 02-13-2023, 12:22 PM

Code:

install(){
    sudo slpkg -i $1 -fp='*'
}

I just want to share with you this. I added it in my .bashrc now when I want to install a package, example vlc, I command "install vlc"
slpkg search if vlc deps are installed and everything that is installed escape from the installation/upgradepkg list. it works like alias=sudo slpkg -i <package> -fp='*'

I tested slpkg with ponce repo for Slackware-current and I found it ok.
I want to share here a small howto for everyone who running Slackware-current and want to use ponce repo via slpkg.

1) IF you install slpkg for first time then you should edit /etc/slpkg/slpkg.toml like this

Code:

nano /etc/slpkg/slpkg.toml

and edit line 55 like this

Code:

# You can choose downloader between wget and curl.
  # Ponce repository works only with 'lftp' downloader.
  # Default is wget. [wget/curl/lftp].
  DOWNLOADER = "lftp"

also line 94

Code:

 PONCE_REPO = true

then save and exit.
you are ready for

Code:

slpkg update

2) If you already have slpkg in the installation, then when you upgrade slpkg version, you should have a file /etc/slpkg/slpkg.toml.new
this is the file you must edit like above, save and exit
Then command

Code:

mv /etc/slpkg/slpkg.toml.new /etc/slpkg/slpkg.toml

and thats all you are ready to use slpkg focus to ponce repo for Slackware-current.

Code:

# slackpkg new-config

also works

If you want to see diff, to merge your old conf with the new one, etc.

Code:

Added:
- For concatenating the short options

Now, we can do, e.g. for reinstalling a pkg, multi jobs, "yes" by default:

Code:

# slpkg -irjy <package>

-irjy = install --reinstall --jobs --yes

note:
MAKEFLAGS must be set in your environment for --jobs (e.g. MAKEFLAGS="-j$(nproc)")

Hi to all,

For everyone who installed 4.5.5 and use the 'ponce' repository, it will be needed to run `slpkg clean-data` & `slpkg update` to recreate the database, otherwise, the database will crash.

With the version 4.5.6 the 'ponce' repository is fully supported.

Cheers

Hi,

You need to install 'python3-progress', I guess 'progress' is a different package.

thanks, that did the trick.
