# Package Manager
|
|
|
|
Package managers are used to handle the installation and management of programs on systems.
|
|
|
|
## List of Package Managers
|
|
|
|
The following is a list of package managers and the corresponding [Linux](/wiki/linux.md)
|
|
distributions.
|
|
|
|
- [Debian](/wiki/linux/debian.md) and Debian-based distributions like
|
|
[Proxmox](/wiki/linux/proxmox.md) use the [APT](/wiki/linux/package_manager/apt.md) package
|
|
manager.
|
|
- [Arch Linux](/wiki/linux/arch-linux.md) and Arch-based distributions use
|
|
[Pacman](/wiki/linux/package_manager/pacman_and_aur.md) and various managers for the AUR.
|
|
|
|
## Alternative Software Distribution Formats
|
|
|
|
Besides traditional package managers, there are portable or universal application formats that work
|
|
across distributions.
|
|
These formats are not package managers.
|
|
They distribute standalone applications that can run independently of the system package database.
