This act as an improvement of the functionality provied by the "rpm -V" command. It also allows the user to restore the attributes to their original state (install state). It features a batch mode, an interactive mode, a logfile, and rollback. rpmsv RPM SuperVisor: manages RPM packages installed on a system to determine which ones should be installed, deleted, or updated rpmwiz RPM Wizard is an installation program for RPM packages. Using a wizard interface, it makes installing easy even for beginners. With features such as automatic dependency handling, it aims to become the most easy-to-use RPM installation program. RPM Wizard is written in Python and uses the PyQt bindings for the Qt GUI toolkit. rtkmerge a GUI to the emerge command to handle packages under the Gentoo Linux Distrubution. It was initially written to help when running 'emerge world' to update the entire system Simple Package Manager Simple Package Manager (SPM), as the name suggests is a simple package manager. It is intended to operate in similar way to existing package managers (e.g apt, dpkg, Pacman, etc). Simple Perl Package Manager Simple Perl Package Manager (SPPM) is a set of perl scripts (with a few bash scripts) to aid in the maintenance of file packages. SPPM is intended mostly for the user who compiles packages from source code, but it can be used when installing any type of package, including .deb and .rpm packages. SPPM can use the 'find' utility to track changes to the filesystem by running a find before and after installing the package. SPPM can also use installwatch if it is found. slack-get slack-get is a tool like Debian's apt-get to autoupdate your Slackware Linux system. It will support an indexing system for use on non-standard packages.

Slaktool a project to improve the Slackware package manager with all the features of the more advanced package managers while retaining the classic .tgz format slapt-get slapt-get is an APT-like system for Slackware package management. It allows you to search Slackware mirrors and third-party package sources (such as www.linuxpackages.net) for packages, compare them with installed packages, and install new packages or upgrade installed packages, all with a few simple commands. Slapt-GUI a complete and powerful graphical user interface for slapt-get, designed to make package management on slackware, simple and easy slapt-src slapt-src is a utility to make querying, retrieving, and building slackbuilds as easy as working with binary packages with slapt-get. Smart Package Manager The Smart Package Manager project has the ambitious objective of creating smart and portable algorithms for solving adequately the problem of managing software upgrading and installation. This tool works in all major distributions, and will bring notable advantages over native tools currently in use (APT, APT-RPM, YUM, URPMI, etc). Sourcer a source installer that focus on easy customization Spack Spack is a complete and standalone package generator designed for Linux Slackware and its derivates. It aims to shrink drastically the code you are required to write to make a decent Slackware package. spkg spkg is a reimplementation of Slackware package manager (pkgtools). Its features are simplicity, speed, a robust implementation, rollback functionality, full compatibility with the legacy Slackware package database, and a library interface. Dependencies are not handled as they are supposed to be resolved at the higher level. Spkgtool a software management system that uses symbolic links for maintaining packages and a "ports" style backend for building package from source tarballs srcconf srcconf is a software package which enables user friendly configuration of software source code packages. srcconf is based on the lxdialog and kconfig (a.k.a. lkc) extracted from the Linux kernel 2.5.50.
