When you do

slapt-get -u

... where does the information go?

I'm curious to have a look at the file(s). These presumably include information about dependencies.

/var/slapt-get/package_data

Thanks. That file looks eminently parsable (and the same as PACKAGES.TXT). I'm thinking of writing a little script to compare the package data for stable and current to work out the most basic unmet dependency for any package in stable that one might be thinking of repackaging for current. Then if that's an upstream package (Slackware) or not doable yet for some reason, leave it alone for now. I'm hoping it could save some time (though it won't help with build-time deps.)
