About

DPKG is a tool to install, build, remove and manage Debian packages. The primary and more user-friendly front-end for DPKG is aptitude. DPKG itself is controlled entirely via command line parameters, which consist of exactly one action and zero or more options. The action parameter tells DPKG what to do and options control the behavior of the action in some way. DPKG can also be used as a front-end to DPKG-deb(1) and DPKG-query. The list of supported actions can be found later on in the actions section. If any such action is encountered DPKG just runs DPKG-deb or DPKG-query with the parameters given to it, but no specific options are currently passed to them, to use any such option the back-ends need to be called directly. DPKG maintains some usable information about available packages. The information is divided into three classes, states, selection states, and flags. These values are intended to be changed mainly with dselect.

About

Flox is a development environment manager and package tool that lets developers define, share, and replicate consistent environments across machines by leveraging the Nix ecosystem. Flox lets you create environments via a simple manifest.toml, layering and replacing dependencies precisely where needed. It activates subshells with reproducible dependencies and integrates shell hooks, version constraints, and services (e.g., local databases) to automate setup. Because it runs on the host system (rather than inside containers), developers maintain access to files, configurations, SSH keys, and shell aliases without Docker-style bind mounts. Flox supports cross-platform and multi-architecture environments by default, allowing environments to run identically on various systems; you can constrain them to specific systems or use package groups to manage architecture-specific dependencies.
