This is a GTK+ front-end to the Slackware package management tools
|
|
(pkgtool). With gnome-pkgtool you can do the following actions to your
|
|
Slackware Linux installation:
|
|
|
|
- Install .t?z packages
|
|
- Uninstall installed packages
|
|
- Re-install/upgrade installed packages
|
|
- Inspect packages content
|
|
|
|
For its function, gnome-pkgtool relies on installpkg and removepkg
|
|
tools for installing and uninstalling packages.
|
|
|
|
Upon start, gnome-pkgtool goes though /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/, so it
|
|
may take some time to appear.
|
|
|
|
NOTE!
|
|
This program is from 2004. It seems to work fine, but keep it in mind.
|
|
The option to build packages is deprecated (requires checkinstall), so
|
|
it is patched out.
