[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 5.4.14, Package name: rpm5-5.4.14, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

This is the Red Hat Package Manager. It is used to manipulate Red Hat
packages, much in the same way as the pkg_* tools are used in FreeBSD
and NetBSD. rpm's come in their own format, and are typically used in
the Linux community for binary package administration.

Log message:
RPM is a powerful and mature command-line driven package management system
capable of installing, uninstalling, verifying, querying, and updating Unix
software packages. Each software package consists of an archive of files
along with information about the package like its version, a description,
and the like. There is also a library API, permitting advanced developers
to manage such transactions from programming languages such as C, Perl or
Python.
