| Explanation & Hint:
A package manager is software that automates the process of installing, upgrading, configuring, and removing software packages from a computer’s operating system in a consistent manner. Package managers are a key component of Linux distributions, allowing users to keep the system up to date and install new applications with ease. Examples include APT (for Debian-based distributions), YUM and DNF (for Fedora and other RPM-based distributions). |
