Kukibl,
Theese days rbistolfi , uelsk8s and I are creating a helper application to make slackbuilds. If you're interested on trying and betatest it, it'd be great.
Here follows a typical slackbuild for VL6. helper script will create the correct directory structure, and will fill names where necessary. You'll only have to tweak configure options and fill description
#!/usr/bin/bash
# This script assumes it will be launched within "/NAME/VERSION/src" dir.
# With all sources in "src" Your Vector Linux .tlz package, slack-desc,
# and slack-required will be found in "VERSION" dir. The extraction and
# build will be in a temp dir created in "NAME" dir, and then removed on exit.
# Comment out second to last line to keep this dir intact.
NAME="" #Enter package Name!
VERSION=${VERSION:-""} #Enter package Version!
VL_PACKAGER=${VL_PACKAGER:-""} #Enter your Name!
LINK=\${LINK:-""} #Enter URL for package here!

# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.
