Apt-rpm an attempt is made to introduce the Advanced Package Tool (APT), originally developed for the Debian Linux distribution, to users of rpm based Linux systems apt-zeroconf Apt-zeroconf is a distributed apt-cacher for local networks. It's called apt-zeroconf since it uses avahi for automatically finding other apt-zeroconf instances on the LAN, similar to Apple's Rendezvous/Bonjour/Zeroconf technology. aptsh Aptsh is a pseudo-shell for systems with Apt package managing tool. It's similar to AptShell from AptRpm, but it works not only with AptRpm. ara ara is a command-line utility for querying the Debian package database. It has a query syntax allowing you to search for boolean combinations of regular expressions. autopackage software that lets you create software packages for Linux that will install on any distribution, can be interactive, can automatically resolve dependancies and can be installed using multiple front ends, for instance from the command line or from a graphical interface AutoPKG lets you keep your Slackware system up to date. It functions similarly to apt-get, the Debian package manager autopkg.pl autopkg.pl is a slackware package generator in perl. AutoRPM lets you mirror RPMs from an FTP site, keep installed RPMs consistent with an FTP site or local directory, and keep installed RPMs in a cluster or network of systems consistent. Autospec creates Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) spec files automatically from a tarball AutoUpdate a simple Perl script which performs a task similar to RedHat's up2date or autorpm BitBake a simple tool for the execution of tasks. It is derived from Portage, which is the package management system used by the Gentoo Linux distribution. It is most commonly used to build packages, and is used as the basis of the OpenEmbedded project bpkg bpkg is a utility that automates the entire process of converting source packages into binary packages. It is similar to CheckInstall but goes further by using heuristics to automate as much as possible of the entire source package download and install process. It has auto-detection for Arch Linux, Slackware, Red Hat, Gentoo and SuSE. buildpkg a package build system. It gives you the opportunity to create package system (like rpm, dpkg, stc.) independent descriptions (.def) which can be used to create binary packages on every system checkinstall checkinstall installs a compiled program from the program's source directory using "make install" or any other command supplied on checkinstall's command line. checkinstall will create a Slackware, RPM or Debian compatible package and install it using your distribution's standard package administration utilities. Cmmi Cmmi helps you to simplify your installation process from ".tar.gz" source archives. It allows you to manage packages for your local site, even if you are not an expert of your OS. Cmmi can make .deb, .rpm, Slackware, and cygwin packages efficiently. Conary Conary is a distributed software management system for Linux distributions. It replaces traditional package management solutions (such as RPM and dpkg) with one designed to enable loose collaboration across the Internet. It enables sets of distributed and loosely connected repositories to define the components which are installed on a Linux system. Rather than having a full distribution come from a single vendor, it allows administrators and developers to branch a distribution, keeping the pieces which fit their environment while grabbing components from other repositories across the Internet. CoolPackager takes a .tar.gz file and a installation script file and create a self-extracting executable scipt cpan2pkg cpan2pkg is a tool built around cpan2dist to create a native Linux package, taking dependencies into account, and integrated with linux distribution repository + buildsystem. cpan2tgz cpan2tgz is a utility to create Slackware packages from CPAN Perl module distributions. CruxPorts4Slack CruxPorts4Slack adapts the "ports" and "pkgmk" commands to allow the use of ports repositories for Crux with Slackware. The httpup program, which is necessary to use ports, is included. Debarchiver a tool to sort debian packages in a automated way so that you can publish debian packages in a easy way Debfoster Debfoster helps you get rid of packages get left behind on your system when the program that required it was removed or upgraded to a version that doesn't have the dependency. Debhelper a collection of programs that can be used in a debian/rules file to automate common tasks related to building binary debian packages. Programs are included to install various files into your package, compress files, fix file permissions, integrate your package with the debian menu system, etc deborphan a utility that checks packages on a Debian/GNU system. If there is an installed package, and there are no other packages depending on its installation, its name is printed to the screen. It's primarily intented for use within the `libs' section, so its default operation is to only check libraries DebSync DebSync helps to synchronise the installed packages on existing Debian GNU/Linux machines. debsync gets a list of installed packages from a master host, and installs or removes packages on several hosts to match the master's package list. DeepManager aims to create a set of tools to help distributors to build, port, test, validate and manage software packages. Existing tools are bm (the build manager) and dm (the dependency manager). The tools are written in Python depfinder depfinder finds the dependencies of Slackware packages. The dependency list can be output to stdout, to a .dep text file without version information, or to a slack-required file with version information. Depot Depot is a software management tool providing a simple yet flexible mechanism for maintaining third party and locally developed software in large heterogeneous computing environments. Depot integrates separately maintained software packages, known as collections, into a common directory hierarchy consisting of a union of all the collections. dh_make_text a program for quick debianization of archives containing text (simple text, HTML or any other format) and nothing more. In most cases it produces ready-to-build package using debhelper after few steps without hand-editing any Debian control files dpkg-changes a simple script which will report on the packages which have been installed, or uninstalled, since the script was last run Emerde a port of Gentoo's portage system that installs, removes, updates, mantains your system rapidly and easily Empulse the update daemon and package management interface for Elysium GNU/Linux. It provides a new packaging format epkg an Encap Package Manager written by Mark Roth for CCSO's Workstation Services Group EPM a free UNIX software/file packaging program that generates distribution archives from a list of files. The distributions include installation and removal scripts that handle such details as diskless client installations and initialization script EPOR EPOR is an open source (GPL) extensible package organiser for Unix like systems. It's written to trace filesystem changes (something being installed) and save those information in a simple textual db. Feta a frontend to the Debian package management system dpkg, the Debian configuration system Debconf, and the Debian package distribution system, APT Fink wants to be simple, functional and fully automated. GNU stow is used to manage a separate directory tree. The fink package manager downloads, configures, compiles and installs software from the internet
