This SlackBuild uses the Debian sources to create a suitable package for |
|
|
|
Slackware. Hdate (and it's python bindings) is a build-time dependency, that |
|
|
|
is built in this same package, but not installed. Because it's a package for |
|
|
|
Slackware, and not Debian, it bears the following differences from the |
|
|
|
original Debian package: |
|
|
|
- Utilities that conflict with Slackware's util-linux have been removed. |
|
|
|
- /etc/cron.daily/bsdmainutils and /etc/default/bsdmainutils have been |
|
|
|
installed in /usr/doc as cron.daily, and bsdmainutils.default, respectively. |
|
|
|
Please verify that these scripts work on your machine before using them in |
|
|
|
production. They were tailored for Debian, not Slackware! |
|
|
|
- The postinst and prerm scripts aren't installed, because they're unnecessary |
|
|
|
in the context of Slackware. |
|
|
|
- Slight structure alterations to fit with the Slackware filesystem. See the |
|
|
|
SlackBuild for more details. |
