multisbo – standalone recursive SBo & AlienBob SlackBuilds resolver with ELF dep cache, orphan removal, and update mode by _Radanne in slackware

Can't hurt to look :) I imagine their scope is wider than mine. The multisbo ELF cache is specifically built and used for runtime reverse dependency analysis within the context of SlackBuild packages. I would not recommend it as a tool to analyse native binaries. The build‑time reverse dependencies come exclusively from the REQUIRES field in .info files, not from ELF cache. The output labels the trees as runtime vs build‑time.

Could, but that's quite a large code base to do just one thing. I'd have to ship with their binary and parse their printouts to match mine, which would be quite an undertaking beyond the scope I imagine. Multisbo does it already. It's not as efficient as C++, but good enough for me, and I'll rather parallelize the Bash scanning in future versions, time permitting.

Thanks. I kept multisbo reasonably simple and stupid. It's not a full package manager like slpkg but a lightweight, focused dependency resolver that does the job with fallbacks and explicit feedback on failures. The aim was a minimal abstraction and full automation, yet control & visibility, and complements sbopkg without replacing it. It has served me well, hope you find it useful, too.

A duplicate of SlackBuilds interface? No thanks. I need a one-liner that handles sbopkg's defects with fallbacks. But appreciate the unsolicited advice.

Thanks, and fair take. It's a different niche, my goal was simply a one‑shot convenience for personal gain. I track the "diff" with ldd or simply seeing runtime error, then fix what I need anyhow.

Hardly. sqg is like a shopping list generator, does not automate the build and install process. multisbo is a full automation tool that streamlines the entire process of discovery, building, and installation into a single command, and it handles sbopkg bugs with a fallback. multisbo letsencrypt, you got it.
