pm

Simple (borderline stupid) pack manager.

Packs are simple tarballs that pm will extract to a predefined $ROOT directory, while keeping track of the installed files in order to list, update or delete them.

Features

• Install packs under any $ROOT directory
• Filesystem as an internal database format
• Multiple compression method supported
• Small feature set (it’s a plus!)
• Ability to use external tool for repositories

Usage

Refer to pm(1) manual page for details and examples. The below commands are provided as a quick introduction.

List all install packs with their versions, and the installed files for a specific pack:

pm -iv
pm -i sick

To add, update or delete a pack:

pm -a sick@1.1.tbz
pm -u sick@1.2.tbz
pm -d sick

For more infomations about the pack format, see pack(5).
