Package Management
Most modern distributions use some
sort of package of management routine to facilitate installation of
compiled binaries. There are two major packaging formats in use: the
Red Hat Package Manager and the Debian Package Manager. The Red Hat
Package Manager (also known as RPM ) has so far been the most popular
packaging system used in major distributions. However, the Debian system
has a significant number of advocates and has several sophisticated
tools that can greatly ease installation of new packages as well as
reducing problems with dependencies (requirements by a package for another
package that may not be installed on the system) by helping to find
those required packages. In general, the distribution you use will
have one system or the other installed. One system cannot be easily
changed into another, although there are some tools that allow the Debian
commands to manage the rpm system.
