E' il problema che avevate rilevato voi? bravi!Wed Oct 31 19:33:06 CDT 2007
a/pkgtools-12.1.0-noarch-1.tgz: Upgraded to pkgtools-12.1.0-noarch-1.
Fixed the following issues with removepkg:
Fix problem removing packages with a large number of fields. Thanks to
Niki Kovacs for noticing this, and to Piter Punk for the patch.
Use LC_ALL=C locale, which is much faster with "sort". Thanks to Tsomi.
Don't try to remove any package that starts with '-'. This is not a proper
package name (usually a typo), and results in the package database being
broken as the "package" beginning with '-' is passed along as an option to
a command later in the script. Thanks to Jef Oliver.
Patched cat_except() to allow the last Slackware package on a partition to
be removed (using ROOT=, of course). Thanks to Selkfoster for the patch,
and to everyone else who proposed solutions before. This issue really
wasn't given the highest priority before, but as long as I was here...
Fixed pkgtool to handle much larger numbers of installed packages.
Thanks to Gabriele Inghirami for the patch.
