Paldo is a Linux OS that uses the Upkg package manager to install and manage software. It is a distribution of the GNU/Linux system.
Paldo is a GNU/Linux distribution that is driven by Upkg technology. It offers the best of both worlds: binary and source distribution. Paldo aims to be a "pure adaptable linux distribution," and the team strives to accomplish this in every package. What sets Paldo apart is that it comes with very few patches against its packages. It has virtually no local changes, and every patch is either a compile fix or needed by the LFS build system to bootstrap correctly.
One significant advantage of Paldo is that it is straightforward to make changes to the distribution, all thanks to the Upkg technology. You can change every package by providing a local version of the sources and specifications you've changed. Additionally, it is possible to configure your system automatically through local differential repositories via My Paldo. The whole distribution is dynamic, flexible, and built on top of Upkg, which makes it versatile.
Paldo's goal is to be a distribution that follows the "just-works" principle, meaning that it tries to configure automatically as much as possible without user intervention. It is task-oriented, which means that it won't provide several programs to do one and the same task; rather, it selects a program that it thinks does the task best and includes it into Paldo. Paldo aims to support cutting-edge technologies and is pure NPTL based, making it incompatible with a Linux kernel older than 2.6.x.
Paldo only offers one desktop environment, the GNOME desktop environment, as it is task-oriented. Another thing to note is that Paldo does not split packages. That means when you install a library, it will install all development files as well. These files will be available to you as soon as you install the package, which is a significant advantage.
Currently, Paldo only supports the x86 architecture, and the team does not plan to expand beyond this, except for the x86_64 platform. This serves as a significant advantage in that it is highly popular architecture, making the team's work much more straightforward. Overall, Paldo is a versatile, flexible and highly adaptable distribution that is perfect for anyone looking for a highly efficient and dependable distribution.
