Description
Aptitude serves as a text-based interface that utilizes Ncurses and functions through the command line to provide access to various Apt libraries, which are similarly employed by the default package manager for Debian, Apt. Operating within a terminal environment, Aptitude utilizes a syntax reminiscent of mutt for flexible package matching. Users can designate packages as either "automatically installed" or "manually installed," enabling the automatic removal of packages that are no longer needed, a feature also present in Apt since several Debian iterations. It offers a visual preview of proposed actions, distinguishing each with different colors to indicate the nature of the action. Additionally, Aptitude allows users to interactively access and view the Debian changelog for all available official packages. Its score-based dependency resolver is particularly adept at handling interactive dependency resolution, accommodating user preferences such as excluding certain parts of a solution while retaining others for future attempts. In contrast, Apt's dependency resolver is tailored for effective "one-shot" solutions, making both tools valuable in their own right for managing packages on Debian systems. Overall, Aptitude enhances user control and visibility over package management tasks.
Description
The Fortran Package Manager (fpm) serves as both a package manager and a build system specifically designed for Fortran. It boasts a wide array of available packages, contributing to a vibrant ecosystem of both general-purpose and high-performance code, enhancing accessibility for users. Aimed at improving the overall experience for Fortran developers, fpm simplifies the process of building Fortran programs or libraries, executing tests, running examples, and managing dependencies for other Fortran projects. Its design draws inspiration from Rust’s Cargo, creating an intuitive user interface. Additionally, fpm has a long-term vision focused on fostering the growth of modern Fortran applications and libraries. One notable feature of fpm is its plugin system, which facilitates the extension of its capabilities. Among these plugins is the fpm-search project, which enables users to query the package registry effortlessly, and because it is built with fpm, installation on any system is straightforward. This synergy not only streamlines the development process but also encourages collaboration among developers within the Fortran community.
