If the -r flag is NOT specified, sboinstall will attempt to grok a list of requirements in the README for a given slackbuild. If such a list exists, sboinstall will look to see whether or not those requirements are already installed, and if not, it will ask whether or not it should attempt to install them first. Note that this method is FAR from foolproof, which is why this does not happen if the README is bypassed. sboinstall will also note groupadd and useradd commands in README files and offer to run those first.

This requires /usr/sbin/convertpkg-compat32; this can at least be obtained from AlienBob's compat32-tools package - see http://alien.slackbook.org/blog/. Note that this may or may not be foolproof, and is not supported by anyone; not me, not AlienBob, not Slackware, etc. I recommend using this with the -i option so that the created package can be inspected prior to installation.

Anytime sboupgrade or sboinstall is run, the first thing the command will attempt to do is show you the README for a given slackbuild and ask whether or not you wish to proceed; this option skips the README and bypasses the question. If multiple slackbuilds are specified, this option bypasses them all. .RE -R .RS -This option causes sboupgrade to skip requirement parsing, but still show the README and prompt the user to proceed. +This option causes sboupgrade to ignore the requirement list. .RE .SH BUGS .P |
