Building PACKAGES.TXT and CHECKSUMS.md5

Hi:

I have a number of custom built slackware packages and I would like to  
create a PACKAGES.TXT and CHECKSUMS.md5 for those packages. I'm sure  
that I could write a script to do this, but I'm assuming that there  
are already scripts available that do this. Can someone point me in  
the right direction?

Thanks

Steve

We have a few functions in the GNOME SlackBuild build system that do exactly 
this.

Take a look at: 
https://github.com/gnomeslackbuild/gsb-build-system/blob/aefe68e67abec2c81632395c27d355e7e7383c21/build/functions.sh

Look for the functions:
  make_pkg_txt
  make_packages_txt
  make_filelist_txt
  make_checksums_md5
  make_manifest

HTH,
Darren.
