Slackware Mirror Iran — slackpkg mirror

slackpkg

Primary endpoint

Use https://mirror.kargadan.ir/repository/slackware-proxy/ as the canonical baseurl in your client configuration.

1 archive

Primary archive only

A single proxy serves the entire distribution — no companion archives needed.

Anonymous

No sign-in required

Public read access over HTTPS. Plain HTTP is available for legacy clients that cannot validate the certificate.

Repository URL

Drop one of the URLs below into your client configuration. HTTPS is the right choice in almost every case.

HTTPS · recommended

https://mirror.kargadan.ir/repository/slackware-proxy/

HTTP · legacy clients only

http://mirror.kargadan.ir/repository/slackware-proxy/

Quick verification

Run this from any machine that can reach the mirror. It should complete in under a second once metadata is cached.

# Quick smoke test
curl -fsSL https://mirror.kargadan.ir/repository/slackware-proxy/slackware64-15.0/CHECKSUMS.md5 \
  -o /dev/null -w 'HTTP %{http_code}  %{size_download}B\n'

Default client configuration

Drop this file at /etc/slackpkg/mirrors on the target host for the recommended default release (slackware64-15.0). See configuration by release for every supported suite.

# /etc/slackpkg/mirrors  (Slackware 15.0 x86_64)
# Slackpkg expects a single URL per active line. Comment out everything else
# and leave just the Nexus mirror.

https://mirror.kargadan.ir/repository/slackware-proxy/slackware64-15.0/

# For 32-bit:    slackware-proxy/slackware-15.0/
# For -current:  slackware-proxy/slackware64-current/
# Sources:       slackware-proxy/slackware64-15.0-source/

# slackpkg verifies CHECKSUMS.md5 (signed). Nexus serves the upstream signed
# files unchanged so signature verification still works.

Each block below is a complete, copy-ready configuration for one suite or release. Install path: /etc/slackpkg/mirrors. The same patterns are committed under /opt/client-configs/slackware/slackpkg-mirrors on the mirror host (default release only).

Notes & limitations
