Wanting and/or needing Lets Encrypt
on a Slackware 14.2 Linux
system has to be the most brutal
approach anyone can imaging ....
I have always enjoyed the hands-on
Slackware requires, but
acquiring the prerequisite for
various packages is very time
consuming and often results in a
broken system ... I am
definitely considering to finally
switch my server needs over to
a deb* based system ... so long
Slackware, it's been a long 24
years :-/
Have you thought about trying this? (I
haven't as I don't
need/use LetsEncrypt):

You're likely familiar with SBo, and
yes.... there are a *LOT* of
dependencies listed there. But, they're
all available right there
on SBo, probably wouldn't be *TOO* bad to
get it done.
Don't give up on Slackware! We need all
of us there are left...!
;-) I will say I'm getting tired of
waiting for 15.0... been over
three years now since 14.2 was released.
Arggghhhh.
Yes, I very aware, my system broke part way
through, so, I reformated the hard drive,
installed Deb9, moved my server backups over
and with a simple 'apt install certbot'
command had TLS up and running
Yeah, I am not expecting Pat to put a 15 out
anytime soon ...
When life gets tough, drop a gear and disappear!
