Do you actually have this:

Code: Select all

 #  <== This line was added by me

in the slackbuild?

No, i added "# <== This line was added by me" only here to make clear i added the line

Code: Select all

--enable-imlib2 \

in the slackbuild and that originally it was not there. In *MY* slackbuild the line looks like above.

OK, so what does this show you?

Code: Select all

which fluxbox

[jsfarinet]

May be it's useful to see what i get from the buffer of the built (if not be free to cancel this msg):

That shows that imlib2 is compiled in. It would be useful to post for the output I asked.

[jsfarinet]

OK, so what does this show you?

Code: Select all

which fluxbox

Code: Select all

$ which fluxbox
/usr/bin/fluxbox

[jsfarinet]

I'm ashamed,blame on me

I should have done also:

Code: Select all

sudo installpkg /tmp/fluxbox-1.3.5-x86_64-1.txz

Now it's all fine. And i'm so sorry i broke your nerves.

A small add-on about package management,in the wiki i didn't find the answer. Why 'slapt-get -i <packagename> doesn't do the job, but 'installpkg <packagename>' does? Not totally clear to me after readin the startup guide.

*Sigh*

that's why I asked if you actually have installed the package.

slapt-get does not install local packages. It installs packages from the repos. Not the same thing. And as laprjns pointed out, use spkg, not installpkg/upgradepkg.

Stupidity is unlimited, obviously (a little excuse might be, i'm so unused to slackware and i thought the fakeroot command would do it all)

In any case, installpkg would not have done any harm, i presume (?) Now, if there's any upgrade would that respect the built fluxbox version? Or is there a way to inform the package system there has been installed a slightly different package and to consider that as (my) default?
