[Slapt-get-devel] Patch to skip

[Alec Thomas]

Hmmm,

Sorry about that. For some reason, the PACKAGES.TXT I had at the root of
my slackware-current mirror had lines like this:

	PACKAGE NAME:  bash-completion-20040331-noarch-1.tgz 
	PACKAGE LOCATION:  ./extra/bash-completion
	PACKAGE SIZE (compressed):  64 K
	PACKAGE SIZE (uncompressed):  245760 K
	PACKAGE DESCRIPTION:
	# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
	# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
	# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' on
	# the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must mak
	# exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also customary to
	# leave one space after the ':'.

				   |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------
	bash-completion: bash-completion
	bash-completion:
	bash-completion: Adds programmable completion to the bash shell.  A new file cal
	bash-completion: /etc/bash_completion will be sourced for interactive bash shell
	bash-completion: adding all sorts of enhanced command completion features.  Once
	bash-completion: installed, you may get a list of all commands that have associa
	bash-completion: completions with 'complete -p', and examine the code for the sh
	bash-completion: functions with 'declare -f'.

Needless to say, this caused havoc with slapt-get. Bizarre. Anyway, all is well now after an rsync.

Regards,
Alec
