      Hello Phil,              07 May 18 13:23 at you wrote to Andrew Leary:               PK> Awesome! I will grabbing it tonight. I moved from Slack to FreeBSD 100        PK> years ago becuase I found the ports/package management so much easier        PK> to manage. But upgrading was a complete bear - just didnt do it!              You'll like using SlackBuilds (www.slackbuilds.org). There's a program called        sbopkg that works with SlackBuilds but as per the Slackware credo, there's no        dependency management. There's a fix for that: there is a script called        sbodeps (on Github) that uses sbopkg and will solve dependency issues on its        own.              There's slapt-get and a few other package managers that other Slack-based        distros use but I am not familiar with them.              Later,       Sean              ... The motor will rotate in the wrong direction.       --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: Outpost BBS * Limestone, TN, USA (1:18/200)    |
