So did someone on GitHub and found a workaround but didn't work for me... so question is does SlackBuilds.org (SBo) allow such weirdly-formed package names (or more) that trip sbopkg and if not is policy only maybe 99% implemented?  SBo has standards-/specifications-checking tools which (if missed in submissions) should check package names...         Since at least early 2022 I want to learn/setup chroot/overlayfs to design/build packages in but found no specific instructions... virtual machines (VM) & non-UNIX & automatic containers (other than perhaps one modification of chroot) are overkill and defeat purpose for me.

I seem to have seen something similar a while back. It was due to a weirdly formed package name which triped sbopkg. But I can't remember which one it was. It only triggered when that package was up for upgrade though, otherwise sbopkg would work fine, so it may not be the same issue.

I am currently using sbopkg with the SBo-git repo on one of my machines without any issues though.

             As I and another on this mailing list stated in past,
    SBo-git
    sbopkg no longer works.  Even after reverting from git to stable,
    sbopkg
    can find updates but no longer displays any queue submenu
    graphically,
    and now most/all sbopkg command-line
    commands/arguments/flags/switches
    just open sbopkg GUI.   Someone wrote it off as 'something you did to
    your PC': clearly false as exact same happened to someone else so is
    some situation (maybe involving standard Slackware-current and/or Sbo
    upgrades) that may become common.  It all even continues to happen
    even
    after I removed sbopkg 20220318_8bf4e6a and installed 0.38.2
