Where does slackware keep its updated sources?
If I go to a mirror, and dive into the directory for slackware64-15, I can find the sources (they no longer come with the install DVD). They do live on the mirror directory. However, if I pull the sources for that application, they are not the current version. They are the original release version. Where do I find the current version with the current Slackbuild script?
Thanks, Chris |
In the slackware64-current/source directory.
E.g.: https://slackware.osuosl.org/slackwa...urrent/source/ |
patches/packages/ contains updated packages.
patches/source/ contains build scripts and sources for the above. As dugan says, you can "borrow" the builds from the "slackware-current" tree, but sometimes they may not work on an older release. Sometimes you get lucky and they do. |
