Project info for Feta

Created 27 Aug 2001 at 05:57 UTC by piman, last modified 27 Dec 2002 at 05:06 UTC by piman.

Notes:

Feta is a frontend to the Debian package management system dpkg, the Debian configuration system Debconf, and the Debian package distribution system, APT. Feta provides a unified interface to over a dozen programs that collectively make up the Debian packaging system and over 30 different commands, plus additional command aliases for compatability with the original tools.

Feta is written in Perl, with minimal external dependencies (Getopt::Std and for one command, Term::ReadLine).

Patches (or suggestions) for additional commands are always appreciated.
