sbozyp is a package manager for Slackware's SlackBuilds.org.
I created sbozyp because I wanted to and do not claim that it is better, worse, or the same compared to its alternatives.
The user manual can be viewed online here, or after installation with $ man sbozyp.
- Built in dependency resolution
- Multiple repository support
- Pure CLI user interface (no ncurses)
- Package browsing, searching, and querying
- Requires zero dependencies on a full Slackware install
- Supports Slackware 15.0 and greater

Copy the example configuration:

If you are using slackpkg then you probably don't want it to manage sbozyp:
# echo sbozyp >> /etc/slackpkg/blacklist
