Does anyone have experience installing pkgsrc-on-slack who can explain to me what I'm doing wrong here? Following the instructions here:

pkgsrc-on-slack (I haven't had enough posts to give the link)

and first trying

wget http://pkgsrc-on-slack.googlecode.com/files/pkgsrc-bootstrap-200xQy-ARCH-BUILD_DISTRO.tgz
installpkg pkgsrc-bootstrap-200xQy-ARCH-BUILD_DISTRO.tgz

I got a 404 not found error. I then tried:


svn checkout http://pkgsrc-on-slack.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pkgsrc-bootstrap

which worked fine, followed by cd'ing to the
pkgsrc-bootstrap directory and then used

sh pkgsrc-bootstrap.SlackBuild

and got the errors shown in the screenshot.

Anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

404 - bad URL?

ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/pkgsrc-2008Q3/pkgsrc-2008Q3.tar.bz2

Not same dir as Index of pub/pkgsrc/ due to server chroot.

this is the script, any idea how I can change the script so that it calls to the correct URL?

Upon closer inspection, I realized that the issue was that the most recent version is for 12.2 and the script is searching for files based on version number (I'm using 13.37). That seems to preclude installation for me without doing some script modification well beyond my current skill level.

URL stub is on line 27: pkgsrc-bootstrap.SlackBuild - pkgsrc-on-slack - Instant pkgsrc framework for Slackware Linux - Google Project Hosting

You may be able to download the file manually and just put it in the correct place for it.
