Bluewhite64 should add something more than what Slackware64 offers. Slackware current is slow on updates and that is where Bluewhite64 can fill in. I imagine it is possible to make a script to scan all of the library dpendencies to make a a build order file for compiling the entire system. If someone could do that (I am not a script master by I'll see what I can do) then that would help us all who want to stay on the cutting edge.

Bluewhite64 should also offer extra apps as a default install such as ffmpeg as well as the zen-kernel.

Here is function you can add to your .bashrc or .bash_profile to help save you some time from typing:


bw64 () {

#Enter your own custom flags or leave blank.

ENH=" -pipe -march=native -msse3" #Leave a space at the beginning or leave blank. 

# Join lines

sed -i -e:a -e "/$/N; s/x86_64\".*\]\; then\n/x86_64\" \]\; then/;Ta" *.SlackBuild

# add optimization

sed -i "s@\(then.*=\"-O[0-4] -fPIC\)\"@\1$ENH\"@g" *.SlackBuild

# separate line

sed -i "s@then\(.*=\"-O[0-4].*\".*\)@then\n\1@g" *.SlackBuild

# remove 64

sed -i "s@\(LIBDIRSUFFIX=\"\)64\"@\1\"@g" *.SlackBuild

# separate line

sed -i "s@then\(.*LIBDIRSUFFIX=\"\"\)@then\n\1@g" *.SlackBuild

}

Type bw64 in the directory your SlackBuild file is located and your script is now ready to execute for Bluewhite64.

Updated the function:


bw () {

#Enter your own custom flags or leave blank.

ENH=" -pipe -march=native -msse3" #Leave a space at the beginning or leave blank. 

# Join lines

sed -i -e:a -e "/$/N; s@\(x86_64\".*\]\; then\)\n@\1@;Ta" *.SlackBuild

# add optimization

sed -i "s@\(then.*=\"-O[0-4] -fPIC\)\"@\1$ENH\"@g" *.SlackBuild

# separate line

sed -i "s@then\(.*=\"-O[0-4].*\".*\)@then\n\1@g" *.SlackBuild

# remove 64

sed -i "s@\(LIBDIRSUFFIX=\"\)64\"@\1\"@g" *.SlackBuild

# separate line

sed -i "s@then\(.*LIBDIRSUFFIX=\"\"\)@then\n\1@g" *.SlackBuild

# rename build

sed -i "s@-slackware-linux@-pc-linux@g" *.SlackBuild

}

Type "bw" to execute function.
