Slacked is a graphic user interface (GUI) for Slackware GNU/Linux's pkgtools. It simplifies the package management process by providing a user-friendly interface.
Slacked is an impressive GUI for the pre-existing pkgtools that accompanies the Slackware GNU/Linux operating system. The software provides a seamless experience for users who want to access and manipulate the package database of Slackware.
Some of the standout features of Slacked are the ability to view the entire Slackware package database and examine every piece of installed software on your system. Moreover, you can install packages easily with different modes such as Test, Install, and Upgrade. Users can also download packages from multiple URLs, including Http and anonymous ftp, by providing the complete URL to the file.
Removing installed packages is also easy with Slacked, thanks to the software's "Remove" modes, which include Test, Copy, and Remove.
To run Slacked efficiently, you need a few requirements such as the QT framework (I used 3.2.1), c++ compiler, and installation script (sh).
In terms of new features, this release includes minor but noticeable tweaks to the GUI so that it is more user-friendly and responsive.
Overall, Slacked is an excellent tool for users of Slackware GNU/Linux. The software's simplicity, its ability to work well with the pkgtools, and its user-friendly interface make it an ideal choice for users who want to manage packages effortlessly.
