Or, if you've got time for some playing, install slackpkg (from extra/)
and type

slackpkg clean-system remove all packages removed from slackware
main distribution. Good to keep the house in order

(copied from the slackpkg response when typing just "slackpkg"
in a console). I haven't tried this for myself and I don't know what
happens to third-party-packages either. The manpage says something about
"you can decide[...]", but no guarantees from my side.
