Slackcurrent is a package to check for newer packages installed on your Slackware box on the current set on some mirror site you select on a list.

slackcurrent script gets the list of packages installed local, if needed update the list of remote files available on the mirror site, and compares they all. If some local package is outdated, you'll be informed about that.

Requirements:
Python

What's New in This Release:
Some packages have rc versions like rc3_2. I don't know why people use an underline char on a rc version and between two numbers, but I'm ignoring that char on the version number.
Now if can use some chars on the build token.
Added the -df (--download-from) option. With this option you can check for the required local packages on some remote directory on your network. Please check the manual about how to use it.
