updating slackbuild package in slackware 12.2


hello. i would like to ask how can i upgrade the packages i install from slackbuilds.org. i think that running:
#slackpkg upgrade-all
only updates those packages i have which is included in the official slackware repo, am i right?do i need to rebuild the package in slackbuilds.org and install it again or is there just a command that will upgrade all the package in my slackware box including from slackbuilds.org? thanks in advance.

No slackpkg will only upgrade official Slackware packages that are part of the distribution.

If you want to keep up to date with slackbuilds.org you might try sbopkg.
