All scripts on SBo must work correctly on stable, so you have to test
the runtime functions (e.g., in a VM). fourtysixandtwo confirmed
that he tested the script and that it works, despite the 3.10 minimum
version.

It is just not officially supported anymore and could break with future
releases.

Not really, but my suggestion wasn't ideal anyway.
Sometimes it works, but fourtysixandtwo's handling of the REQUIRES in
his email attachment "ripe-atlas-slackbuilds.tar.gz" is way better and
more correct.
