[Slackbuilds-users] hardinfo2

[Didier Spaier]

Hello,

most distributions are now shipping hardinfo2, that supersedes hardinfo.

I suggest that someone (David, who maintains hardinfo?) provide a SlackBuild for
it. I have written a SLKBUILD for it
https://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-15.0/source/hardinfo2/SLKBUILD adapted
from the PKGBUILD from Arch.

The binary is /usr/bin/hardinfo2 so it does not really conflict with hardinfo,
although it clearly supersedes it.

sysbench is a highly recommended dependency, preferably at version 1.0.20 so a
version bump from 1.0.19 wold be welcome. I address this email to Sergio too.

This suggestion triggered by this post @ LQ:

Cheers,
