Description: | This package provides the low-level infrastructure for handling the
installation and removal of Debian software packages.
This package contains the tools (including dpkg-source) required to unpack,
build and upload Debian source packages.
This package also contains the programs dpkg which used to handle the
installation and removal of packages on a Debian system.
This package also contains dselect, an interface for managing the installation
and removal of packages on the system.
dpkg and dselect will certainly be non-functional on a rpm-based system because
packages dependencies will likely be unmet. |
