Linux Distributions - Facts and Figures

Last Update: Tuesday 9 February 2010 03:18 GMT

What is your distribution's package management?
Regular DistroWatch visitors will know that I am no friend of the RPM package manager, yet the truth is that it remains the most popular tool for managing your software. Many RPM-based distributions are now using one of the RPM ports of Debian's APT tool, which are known under various names, but for the sake of simplicity I'll refer to them as APT-RPM. Debian's DEB and Slackware's TGZ (and its derivatives) are also widely used. Most source-based distributions don't offer pre-compiled binary packages so the only way to install the software is to compile it directly from source code. A couple of more unusual package managers were also invented. The best-known is probably the (now dormant) Stampede's SLP, which had a few interesting features, but JBLinux also developed its own package manager. I am not sure about UHU - is it just a Debian packager with a different name?
