[SOLVED] USM repository preference order
Posted: 24 Oct 2015, 13:40
Hi
sometimes when I search USM I find later versions of a package and so tend to go with that.
But here is an example of same upstream version, modest size changes.
Which repo do members prefer?
Yes I know I have it installed it, this is just an example showing different repositories and I don't know much about Slackware.
I have no idea why USM claims I have all 3 installed, still new at Porteus but now on 64 bit LxQt.
so offtopic to question
I am guessing USM is responding to
and taking the version as installed so no need to upgrade etc

AFAIK if one installs a non-standard package and it does not show up in /var/log/packages, USM will not take it into account.
