It should just work, but it's not clear from your email what is going
wrong. Does sbopkg fail to work, or does it not see the installed
packages, do you get any error messages etc. A bit more detail is
needed. What is $OUTPUT set to in your sbopkg.conf?
As far as not running installpkg, that is all that sbopkg does, so I'm
not sure what you are saving. Are these packages you built from
SlackBuild scripts from SBo? Do they have the "_SBo" tag in the package
name?
