Description

DPKG serves as a utility for managing Debian packages, allowing users to install, build, and remove them efficiently. Aptitude acts as the primary and more intuitive interface for DPKG. The functionality of DPKG is accessed solely through command line parameters, which include a single action paired with zero or more options that modify the action's behavior. The action parameter indicates the specific task DPKG should perform, while options adjust how this task is executed. Additionally, DPKG can function as a front-end for DPKG-deb(1) and DPKG-query. A detailed list of supported actions is provided in the actions section. When an action is called, DPKG executes either DPKG-deb or DPKG-query with the supplied parameters, but without passing any specific options; to utilize those options, the back-ends must be directly invoked. DPKG also keeps track of relevant information about available packages, categorizing it into three types: states, selection states, and flags, which are primarily managed using dselect. This organization of information aids in the effective management of package statuses within the Debian ecosystem.

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.
