Subject: Slackware package and packaging rule

Got a native slackware packaging rule set up.
Here's the first package:
ftp://john-l.cwru.edu/pub/dev/abiword/abiword-0.7.13.slp
md5sum: 78d7f3aa07b546d365d62569931e3a36
Quick question: I know that we've been using the *.slp extension in the
past to indicate a slackware package file, but *.tgz or *.tar.gz are the
standard extentions. What happens is that when installing the package,
the log file is saved as /var/log/packages/abiword-0.7.13.slp, as
opposed to /var/log/packages/abiword-0.7.13, which is what usually
happens. Do we want to ignore this (slightly) sloppy behavior?
Attached is the diff for the Makefile in $(ABI_ROOT)/abi/src/pkg/linux/,
and a tarball of the added directory, $(ABI_ROOT)/abi/src/pkg/linux/slp,
and files contained therein. Let me know if everything works for
everybody.
Take care,
John
