spkg

If you are searching for a reliable package manager reimplementation, then spkg is the one to go for. It's based on Slackware package manager, commonly known as pkgtools, but comes with enhanced features. The software handles dependencies at a higher level and does not interfere with them.

Spkg is extremely simple to use, just like its main inspiration, pkgtools. It has a speedy installation process that is faster than tar xzf by approximately 10%, and uninstalls faster than rm -rf. The technology used for spkg is robust ensuring that almost all error conditions are checked.

One of the exciting features of spkg is the Rollback functionality. This feature has a no file left behind policy that ensures your system is as clean as possible. You will love the full compatibility of spkg with legacy Slackware package databases, and everything has been properly libified to enable you to quickly put up new commands with ease.

Spkg gives you easy access to the package database due to its libification feature. To use it, ensure you have requirements like GLib and Judy in place. The software has a good update that adds support for uncompressed packages, offering improved functionality.

In conclusion, spkg is an impressive piece of software to have as you can easily perform package installations without much hassle and get new features with each update.
