Sources for slapt-get?

JockVSJock · 01-07-2006, 11:48 AM

Using slapt-get to update my packages for Slackware 10.2.

I need sources for 10.2, and I have checked linuxpackages.net for those and looks like all they have is up to 10.1 for supported versions.

Can anyone advise where to go to get 10.2 sources?

On the slackware homepage, which is found here. If you goto the "Packages" section, and then from there you want to goto "Get Slack!" From there you can pick a source to download from. I picked Purdue just to test it. Then once your on the FTP server, if you choose purdue too, you open the folder "Slackware 10.2" and in that folder there is a folder named "source." So I would see if thats what your looking for. Good luck!

I'm was very clear with my question, so I am sorry.

What I meant is that are there any more sources that I can add to the slapt-getrc file? Much like apt-get, you can different source lines to increase the software possibilities.

thanks

Sure, you can see a copy of the current example.slapt-getrc here http://software.jaos.org/BUILD/slapt...le.slapt-getrc

You should also have a copy under /usr/doc/slapt-get*/
