You can find the file repository.tar.gz here:

http://www.stabellini.net/repository.tar.gz

in the file there are the PACKAGES.TXT I modified for local sources
(/mnt/cdrom the first Slackware cdrom, /mnt/cdrom2 the second), and the
CHECKSUMS.md5, that is a copy of the official file from Slackware 10.2.
I forgot the most important thing: I was using slapt-get 0.9.10.
Even if I download the last slapt-get from cvs, I doubt I can simulate
the situation where I encountered the problem, because it only happened
on my working and production system, not with systems I use for building
packages, qemu, etc. I can't downgrade to 10.1 and try again :)
