What version of slapt-get are you using?  Did you install the 10.0 package?

Has it ever worked?  Can you give me all your non commented SOURCE entries in your slapt-getrc
file?


Also, can you try the current cvs code using:

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@jaos.org:/var/cvs login
[enter]
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@jaos.org:/var/cvs co slapt-get

then go into the slapt-get directory and run [make pkg], and [installpkg pkg/slapt-get*.tgz]...
maybe that will work better for you.


take care,
jason
