this is used here and has worked fine for a long time:
REPO=https://gitlab.com/SlackBuilds.org/slackbuilds.git
This setting is better for Slackware 15.0.
REPO=rsync://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/15.0/
Sbotools uses 'rsync://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/$VERSION/' by default
for Slackware releases. This way it points to slackbuilds.org directly
and it locks the slackbuilds version to your Slackware release.
What went wrong before is sbotools has not updated since the 15.0
release to include it.

Hi,
every now and then when I run sbocheck it says

But then when I try it again, I get

(where "..." is the path to when I keep it that is not of interest).
Aside from deleting the repository and downloading the whole thing
again, is
there a better way of recovering from this problem?
Thanks.
