hi Mathieu

I'm on holiday at the moment and will give a more complete reply
when I get back.  In brief you need to be able to do a few simple
package database meta operations such as listing all files in a
package and listing the installed deps of a named pkg.  This pre-
supposes that slackware has such a packaging db.  Pino CCd can
give more details, and you can look at existing pkg systems in
src/*.ml.
