This is a tagfiles manager for Slackware Linux. You can use it to make a more customized installation of Slackware Linux.
First you need to fetch the tagfile templates with:
$ bash ./tagfiles_manager.sh -f
Then you need to configure the tagfiles, for example:
$ bash ./tagfiles_manager.sh -C all -q -s "essential dev" -g
The command above generated tagfiles as follows:
- First disable all packages
-q
enables all "recommended" packages (this comes from Slackware itself)-s
option enables the essential & dev categories (internal categories for tagfiles manager)-g
greps for the package counts
The result is a very minimal installation with only 135 packages, but it still has fully functional dev environment to compile stuff.
