Message-ID: <41fdcb17-752e-982f-151d-458f2d7759bf@gmail.com> Improvements could be: let sbopkg get updated from a menu item, and SlackBuilds.org, and a repository addable in slackware/extra/slackpkg+.? The sbotools and most/all other package management tools in SBo can update themselves; sbotools sems better for a number of years (especially major features this year) except in a few cases one wants GUI (easier to view updates and queues though more steps to run queues in GUI).? Is this doable?? When Slackware 15.1 stable comes out it'd be nice to just update sbopkg with itself or slackpkg+ before rebuilding *SBo*.

Willy thanks for your custodianship these past few years, your DE/window manager custodianship too. I haven't thanked you for far too long. I haven't seen Chess around in years, but sbopkg couldn't be in better hands now. Kindest regards, -- Bradley D.
