Manual compilation, wget+installpkg on precompiled packages (whether by AlienBob or anyone else), sbopkg without queue files/with queue files, slapt-get/slapt-src, the FTP repository that can be queried from slackpkg, etc.
Most of the time I use slackpkg to apply updates and version upgrades, sbopkg for third-party software by handpicking the dependencies, and precompiled packages for software with lots of dependencies that are tedious to sort.
It's clean, easy and avoids the bloat of unneeded packages lying on your system.
