Synaptic‌‌


Synaptic is a graphical package manager that features a clean and efficient graphical interface (shown in Figure 8.2, “synaptic Package Manager” [page 194]) based on GTK+ and GNOME. Its many ready-to-use filters give fast access to newly available packages, installed packages, upgrad- able packages, obsolete packages, and so on. If you browse through these lists, you can select the operations to be done on the packages (install, upgrade, remove, purge); these operations are not performed immediately, but put into a task list. A single click on a button then validates the operations and they are performed in one go.
