swaret is an updater for Slackware and
Slackware-based distributions. It upgrades,
installs, re-installs, and downloads packages,
patches, sources (with build scripts), and much
more. Dependency support is included, which tracks
and fixes missing libraries for all packages.
Several Slackware Linux mirrors are used through
HTTP, FTP, rsync, or a local filesystem.
Third-party Slackware packages are availible on
LinuxPackages.net or other repository sites.
Internationalization (i18n) is supported.
