Use the Slacky.eu repository with slapt-get ? [in english]

Messaggio da kikinovak »

Hello everybody,

I'm an Austrian Slackware user living in South France, and I use it exclusively on servers and desktops. Recently I played around with slapt-get : I installed it from Salix and then used it with the Salix repositories.

Is there a way to use the Salix package repositories with slapt-get and dependency handling ? And if so, is there a little HOWTO on how to do so ? I'm sorry my Italian is very poor : I tried to find this information, but without success.

Cheers from the sunny South of France,

Niki

I'm sorry but it is no possible to use the slacky.eu reposistory with dependencies support, you can still use it without dependencies. This is due to the way slapt-get resolves the dependencies: it just relay on files that has to be present in the reporitory tree for each package. No files, no dependencies.

It's kinda annoying, i know, but so far slapt-get has not made its way into the slackware hardcore community (a.k.a. PJV's mind), therefore much of the repositories out there has no support for it; and slacky.eu is quite a bit of an hardcore community if you ask me, so we just like to leave things "vanilla". Although, you can use a tool developped from some users of this community: Slackyd. it _will_ let you install any package on the slacky.eu repos and tell you if there is any missing dependencies on your system for that package (or what the dependencies are in the first place), but it does not install any of them for you "automagically" so you have to searh the repository and install them manually or trhough slackyd himself... not a big deal once you know that for each package on the repository there will also be all the dependencies.

Hope this helped.

Slacky.eu repository SUPPORTS slapt-get dependencies system.
Also salix repository supports deps.

Official slackware repository does NOT supports dependencies.

A repository supports deps if its PACKAGES.TXT contains entries as:
PACKAGE REQUIRED: glib2,python,zlib
or
PACKAGE REQUIRED: atk >= 2.4.0-x86_64-1,bzip2 >= 1.0.6-x86_64-1,cairo >= 1.10.2-x86_64-2

to add repositories to slapt-get, edit slapt-get.conf by adding
SOURCE=http://repository.slacky.eu/slackware64-14.0/:CUSTOM
SOURCE=http://download.salixos.org/x86_64/14.0/:CUSTOM

You can found here a long list of repositories.
Packages finder: slakfinder.org | Slackpkg+, per aggiungere repository a slackpkg
