'shutter' slackbuild

[User]

https://slackbuilds.org/repository/15.0/graphics/shutter/

I installed this by hand. It required a total of 83 additional
packages. None of these packages required any special sort of
configuration setting to build/install. All the GPG signatures and MD5
hashsums matched.

There was exactly one package that didn't compile
(perl-Test-Pod-Coverage). It was a deep dependency and I was able to
build the parent package without issue.

I have a semi-automated build system but still manually download, build,
and install each package. Is there a tool that could be used to
automatically resolve these sorts of simple package dependencies?

Here is a screenshot (taken with the 'shutter' software) of all the
packages required to install it.

slpkg -s sbo shutter

Will download, compile and install a package like shutter with all its
recursive dependencies. The required dependencies are read from the .info
files like shutter.info.

Wow. Very good information Henrik. Has the -s option always been
available? I always used -b and had to resolve the dependencies
myself.

I can't say for sure as I have only used slpkg since about 2016 myself,
but looking in the changelogs of slpkg I see "slpkg -s sbo" mentioned the
first time 2014 in the changelog of version 1.6.9 - 04/08/2014. Version
1.6.9 might seem like a high and mature version, but the oldest entry in
the changelog is version 0.0.1 - 07/05/2014 so slpkg was only about 3
months old when version 1.6.9 was released.

Thank you! Tested on a virtual machine and was able to install shutter
using 'slpkg -s sbo shutter'.

slpkg is an excellent tool. I also tried it on the machine that I
manually built shutter.

It was able to identify the packages I had forgotten to install for
'shutter' from the dependency tree:

and install them:
