I use GNORPM. But (as it's currently configured) it doesn't work for me unless I'm root. -----Original Message----- From: Sergio Brandano [mailto:sb@dcs.qmw.ac.uk] Sent: Wednesday, August 11, 1999 10:40 AM To: linuxppc-user@lists.linuxppc.org; linuxppc-dev@lists.linuxppc.org Cc: sb@dcs.qmw.ac.uk Subject: Package Management Hi all, I wonder, is there an utility that allows to install/update/remove packages? The update/remove part is of paramount importance. Also, hearing from the happy users of Debian (i386), apparently they can save on a single floppy all the data that are strictly needed in order to install a Debian system from scratch (what packages and, for each package, the chosen version). This is a terrific feature that allows sysadms to mirror their finely tuned system across multiple machines, with ftp installation. Do we have something similar?
