Do a search in these forums. You'll need to edit the sbopkg script to have it working in Salix. Change one line actually.
Oh yes.... I forgot about that.

If you are using Salix 13.1, an upgrade should add this new utility to your system menu.
Code: Select all
su -
slapt-get -u
slapt-get --upgrade

How did you install it?
If you did the "make" and "make install" way you can try "make uninstall".
If you are just running it from the folder you can delete the folder.
