Swaret Repositories

anyone know any good Repositories to add to the swaret.conf file, or any good ones to enable that are on there?

Thanks

Check Shilo's sticky, How I do it all, at the top of this forum. There is a TON of good info in there.

I did, the repo he said to enable doesnt work, and it also seems to be for an older version :/

Uncomment the line for linuxpackages.net.

On the REPOS_ROOT line that you quoted, if you edit your swaret.conf file and replace "9.1" with "10.2", it should let you download and install 10.2 packages. I tried it by replacing 9.1 with current and it didn't work, but 10.2 does.
