Anything cooler than the apt utility for Debian or Ubuntu?

Question

linux

Ladies and gentlemen, Good evening. The question is: Is there anything simpler than Ubuntu's apt utility? How it works, I don't understand. Naturally, I understand that the apt utility is a package manager, but I do not understand how it works. And in general, it seems to me that the apt utility is redundant in its functionality.

Answer 1

If you do not understand apt, then alas, Linux is not for you.
I just use two commands there:
apt-get update
apt-get install packeganame It's
not very clear what exactly you don't understand in the two simplest apt commands.

Answer 2

since you put the archlinux tag, I’ll say that pacman is cool, but of course everything is relative)
the question really begs, what has become an obstacle in your way? after all, out of the whole host of package manager functions, you really don’t need so much, the main thing is to know the basics and where to find answers to questions if this “basic” is suddenly not enough.
For example, here are the main commands that are used in 90% of cases:

# установить пакет:
pacman -S пакет

# удалить пакет:
pacman -R пакет

# обновить систему:
pacman -Syu

Answer 3

The simplest utility! If you haven’t mastered it, use the gui, everything is clear for housewives there.

Answer 4

Try aptitude
