Conary: An innovative second-generation package manager (Linux.com)
[Posted March 6, 2007 by ris]
Linux.com takes a look
at Conary. "rPath's Conary is a second-generation package
manager. Considering that Erik Troan, rPath's CTO and co-founder, was one
of the original authors of the RPM package format, some might be tempted to
view Conary as an effort to do things right the second time around -- nor
is that view far from wrong. In its design, Conary is a streamlined version
of dpkg or RPM with Yum in which all the utilities of those package
managers are combined in a single command and combined with version control
to meet the demands of a modern distribution."
