-Slackins is a graphical frontend for Slackware's pkgtool suite.
-It has also some additional tools; for example, rpm2tgz, library check,
-etcetera. You must have root privileges to start it.
-
-It has some flaws, though. Resizing it is not that beautiful, and
-there are also some spelling issues.
-
-Note that the slackins binary will install with root:wheel ownership
-and mode 4750, meaning that it's setuid root and executable only by
-root and members of the wheel group. This should be a safe enough
-approach since this will prevent everyone else from executing it,
-and even so, slackins will prompt for the root password before doing
-anything. If you don't want to install the binary suid, then run
-the build script as follows:
- SETSUID=no ./slackins.SlackBuild
