Swaret Problem
 
I just got swaret, and I was trying to update, but for some reason I keep getting a message that it failed. Here is the output from the "swaret --update" command.

root@mobile:/usr/src/swaret# swaret --update
swaret 1.6.2-1

Does anyone have any idea why these are failing? This is a fresh installation of slackware 10.0, and swaret is the only thing I have installed so far. I have not made any other changes to the system either.

I would comment the linuxpackage source in /etc/swaret.conf as it may break your system (some packages are twice with the officials). try this source instead :
ROOT=http://sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch/ftp/mirror/slackware/slackware-$VERSION
