[Slackbuilds-users] RFC: changing .SlackBuild to allow separate source tree

[Nick Blizzard]

some tweak of this usually works for me (shamelessly stole from pats
scripts)

VERSION=${VERSION:-$(echo ${PRGNAM}-*.tar.?z* | rev | cut -f 3- -d . | cut
-f 1 -d - | rev)}

at most I have to tweak the 3 and 1 for how the source package gets
named... pair with a download script that pulls from the info... and it
just works.
