Selecting Debian packages

Once you have the repositories that you want configured, you need to retrieve information about what is in the repositories. This includes not only package lists, but package descriptions, contents, and dependencies. This is done by updating your package cache, after which you can browse, select, install, upgrade, and delete packages.

If you need dedicated infrastructure for RPM-based applications, consider a United Kingdom Dedicated Server for greater control over package management, software deployment, system configuration, and server resources.
