Thanks, Ben.
Getting closer.
$ grep -v '^#' /etc/slackpkg/mirrors
http://slackware.osuosl.org/slackware64-14.2/
$ slackpkg update
$ yes | slackpkg install texlive xfig fig2dev texinfo
$ yes | slackpkg install texindy
Checking local integrity... DONE
Looking for texindy in package list. Please wait... DONE
No packages match the pattern for upgrade. Try:
/usr/sbin/slackpkg install|reinstall
P.S. I realize the issue with texindy is a solved problem. But I'm curious
to know how to create a replica Slackware setup.
Regards,
- Robert
