sbokpg slackbuilds.org (optional src2pkg backend )

meet together better said both used together and staying separate
to compliment each others special qualities
this isnt an official union but its a way linux works together as a team
by forming useful programs together in strange ways
sbopkg gets the sources and organizes them
src2pg builds the packages
Its all about choice this wasnt possible when I started on puppy
now it is so you now have a choice how to build and install packages
this may seem strange to official slackware users but I am not using official slackware
as the base but doing it this way I can utilize both
because I have different packages installed as my base system
so this opens up options that sbopkg hadnt planed on
and that is using outside of slackware official
slackbuilds still can be used or src2pkg.auto
they get chosen in the config file so full function of sbopkg still works
I got this working on TXZ pup!!!
http://www.sbopkg.org/
2,733 build scripts GUI driven auto package maker
*plus all the official sources I havent included in that number wow thats a lot
I wrote something else for all the official packages*
Its all about choice this wasnt possible when I started on puppy
now it is so you now have a choice
because I have all the support files pre installed
and maintained a standard this was the payoff
at least take a look to see whats out there
even if you just get some ideas from it
staying on the slackware path has paid off in gold bars
a part of me wishes I wrote it but I am happy just to get a chance to use it
it all finally came together
will be busy cooking up packages for quite some time
I will update the first post with the latest
I mostly docmented what was done so I wouldnt forget
and new versions could be modified quickly
everything you need is in this post
this is the latest modified sbopkg to use src2pkg as the backend to be used as the default in sbopkg
http://www.puppy2.org/slaxer/sbopkg-0.35.0-10_SLXR.tgz
UPDATED sept 2-2011
simple version fully automatic
builds needed files on the fly when you select the package to build
this makes things very very fast
0.) devx see here
1.install src2pkg see here open a terminal then src2pkg --setup
2 dependency gpg see here
3. install sbopkg see here open terminal sbopkg and SYNC to get the sources *after you get asked to build the src2pg.auto scripts
this gets you started and downloads the needed files /sources
look for some package you want to build
press enter
press enter
notice here src2pkg is taking over the build 100%
and the src2pkg.auto got made here and the pkg-desc too
this is done automatically now
if all was well the package is in /tmp
for the question about continue, abort, build
type n for no
**this part is not used its only for when
slackbuilds is the default and you are using an
official slackware distro so ignore this part
