[Slackbuilds-users] sbotools not working any more, or is it just me?

[Luveh Keraph]

Thanks. The contents of my /etc/sbotools/sbotools.conf are the following:

SLACKWARE_VERSION=15.0
REPO=https://gitlab.com/SlackBuilds.org/slackbuilds.git

They have not changed for almost two years.

What is intriguing here is that the problems that I am reporting have
appeared simultaneously in six different systems. Let me show you the
output from sbocheck in one of them:

HEAD is now at 35ff2388af Public www update: Sat Sep  7 02:10:43 UTC 2024.
Checking for updated SlackBuilds...

brave-browser 1.69.168              <  needs updating (1.69.162 from SBo)
libreoffice 24.8.1                          <  needs updating (24.8.0 from
SBo)
netdata 1.47.1                              <  needs updating (1.47.0 from
SBo)
opera 113.0.5230.86                  <  needs updating (113.0.5230.55 from
SBo)

My sbotools environment does not know about the Slackbuilds upgrades that
were made publicly available two days ago. I have repeatedly synced sbopkg,
to no avail.
