Porteus Package Manager (PPM)
Posted: 20 Oct 2020, 18:53
I use Porteus 4.0.
On FAQ page for Porteus it's written:
"How can I install new programs that are not included in the default Porteus ISO?"
A new program is included with Porteus Version 1.0 and higher, called Porteus Package Manager (PPM). It can be opened from the desktop menu under the 'System' heading, or run from the command line, as 'porteus-package-manager'."
Does it still exist ?
(maybe the FAQ should be corrected?

also in FAQ:
"You can also use the slackyd package manager to install new programs. Slackyd is a CLI (command line interface) utility included with Porteus by default. Slackware packages can be searched and downloaded via slackyd (run the command 'slackyd' for more information on usage of the slackyd application), and then converted into Porteus modules using the 'txz2xzm' utility."
This command also doesn't exist.
