    spkg description

    A reimplementation of Slackware package manager (pkgtools)

    spkg project is a reimplementation of Slackware package manager (pkgtools). Dependencies are not handled as they are supposed to be resolved at the higher level.


    Product's homepage

    Here are some key features of "spkg":

    · Extreme symplicity. Just like pkgtools.
    · Fast installation (approx. 10% faster than tar xzf)
    · Fast unistallation (faster than rm -rf)
    · Robust implementation. (nearly all error conditions are checked)
    · Rollback functionality. (no file left behind policy ;-))
    · Full compatibility with legacy Slackware package database.
    · Everything is libified. (see docs) You can implement new commands easily.
    · Easy access to the package database thanks to libification.

    Requirements:

    · GLib2
    · Judy

    What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

    · This version has an updated autotools build system and a few fixes from users.
