mpkg (Moss Packager) is a replacement for apt, rpm, and any other package managers out there. It is designed for ease of use, whether you use or make software. mpkg is updated regularly by Gavin Faulkner. You can download mpkg or our software-making kit for Linux.

What format do packages use?
mpkg packages use an internal format, .pkg. It is based on the .tar.bz2 format, so it should work for any Debian-based system that can handle those formats. If you cannot for some reason, .tbz downloads are available.

Have Problems?
Ask on the forum. We'll answer your question or, if necessary, post a new release.
