From: tapp on 14 Dec 2009 06:58 Hi, I know slackware.com/~alien, rlworkman.net and slacky.eu as reliable sources for precompiled PKGs. Do you know others you can recommend? Repositories which maintain older Slack versions (12.1) would be especially great. Thanks, Arnd

Yup, we sure do. No real Slacker would have a single package from LP.net installed on his system. Simple as that, n00b, and if you don't know why..... it's because you're a clueless n00b.
