Hi Anand!
No it isn't. If you want to use Slackbuilds/buildscripts, you are free to do so.

Re: Is SLKBUILD usage compulsory?
Hi,
So it means that we can use SlackBuilds for packages submitted for inclusion in Salix? Do SlackBuilds need to be named build-<package_name>.sh? I tested slkbuild and that makes it dead easy to create build scripts, but I'd like to be able to maintain packages on slackbuilds.org as well.
It opens another question: can you / will you use existing SlackBuilds to add new packages to Salix repository?

Re: Is SLKBUILD usage compulsory?
Of course you can use Slackbuilds and, no there is no rule for build-$name.sh naming. You can use $name.Slackbuild naming as with all slackware packages.
Re: Is SLKBUILD usage compulsory?
But I'd appreciate it to have the SlackBuild included in the package in /usr/src/$packagename-$version
Re: Is SLKBUILD usage compulsory?
Yes. I feel using SLKBUILD makes package creation process more systematic.

Re: Is SLKBUILD usage compulsory?
No you have the whole control of it. Study SLKBUILD please.
