Hello, I just drop on that package manager for slackware. It is presently maintained. It is based on gento package manager system.

Any thoughts about it?

Does it resolve dependencies like USM? Does it work with multiple databases like USM?

Where do you see it as presently maintained?
Download links seem to be dead. The last supported version it says is for Slackware 9 (2003).

The software was very performant, but because of its name was not at all a big hit. It was rather a big hit with s in front and of software only the prefix was warranted.
