Installing packages

This is an old revision of the document!


fbpkg is the package manager for SnackLinux.

Update the packages list by running fbpkg update

Search for packages fbpkg search tetris

Install a package

fbpkg install vitetris

You can also set the installation directory by running

FB_INSTALL_PATH=/tmp/fb fbpkg install vitetris

Remove a package

fbpkg remove vitetris

Upgade the system (currently only supports one package at a time)

fbpkg update && fbpkg upgrade

For instructions on building a package, see the building packages page. Below are the current compilation options for SnackLinux packages. For reference /path/to/staging is a placeholder path when packaging.
