Small correction in /usr/libexec/slackpkg/core-functions.sh


Just a small grammatical correction to line 1174 of this script:

Code:
You have a broken $ROOT/var/log/packages - with two versions of the same package.\n\
The list of packages duplicated in your machine are shown below, but don't\n\
worry about this list - when you select your action, slackpkg will show a\n\
better list:\n"
"The list of packages duplicated in your machine are shown below ... " should be "The list of packages duplicated in your machine is shown below ... "

It's in git master now with a thanks to you. Much appreciated :-)

Note that most of the messages and such in the code were written by a non-native English speaker; however, note that I'm not at all discouraging reports/patches for grammar...
