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.
Description
Synaptic is a user-friendly graphical interface for managing packages through the apt system, offering functionalities similar to the apt-get command-line tool but with a more accessible Gtk+ front-end. Users can easily install, uninstall, upgrade, or downgrade both individual and multiple software packages, as well as perform comprehensive system upgrades. The program allows for the management of package repositories through the sources.list file and facilitates searching for packages based on various criteria, including name and description. Additionally, it provides the capability to filter and select packages by their status, section, or customized parameters, while sorting can be done according to name, status, size, or version. Users can explore available online documentation for specific packages and access the latest changelog versions. The tool also includes functionalities to lock packages to their current versions, enforce the installation of particular package versions, and utilize undo/redo features for selection changes. Furthermore, a built-in terminal emulator enhances the package management experience, and for users on Debian/Ubuntu systems, it allows configuration through the debconf system and supports fast searching via Xapian, thanks to contributions from Enrico Zini. Overall, Synaptic is an essential tool for users who prefer a graphical approach to package management while still retaining the powerful capabilities of apt.
