Chapter Review / Summary
TODO(dcohen) we’ll add this to all the other chapters when we’re through with the first draft.
In this chapter, you learned:
- What package managers are
- Common package managers you’ll see
- Common package management operations and their commands, “translated” across package managers
- A popular procedure for downloading and executing custom install scripts
- A quick practical introduction to locally building and installing software yourself
You should now be comfortable with the high-level concepts (and practical commands) you’ll need to operate on many Unix and Linux system, in development and production environments.
