# This script is to perform several steps for keeping the Slackware hosts up to date.
# Presumably this script was originally created by Henry Pfeil, modified/enhanced by Sean Galyen on 12/5/06.
# Script purpose: The script will download a local copy of the Slackware packages, compare them against currently installed package and report which packages should be upgraded but will NOT automatically upgrade.
# Notes:
# The script will generate a working file called /root/sync_slack/sync_slack.txt to hold the email attachment to be generated.
# The script will generate a temporary file called /root/sync_slack/sync_slack.wip to hold the upgradepkg results.
# Verify we have a good copy of the most recent packages, hosted from thales.ltc.arizona.edu public rsync repository.
# The > here is to ensure the file is fresh even though we delete it at the end of the script.
# All >> after this one to append, except for the wip file.

# Generate the temporary file with all the text we plan to manipulate.
# *** It is critical to have the --dry-run switch or upgradepkg will UPGRADE your packages.
# The > here is to ensure the file is fresh even though we delete it at the end of the script.
