About

Installing, patching, and removing software packages on Linux machines is one of the common tasks every sysadmin has to do. Here is how to get started with Linux package management in Linux Red Hat-based distributions (distros). Package management is a method of installing, updating, removing, and keeping track of software updates from specific repositories (repos) in the Linux system. Linux distros often use different package management tools. Red Hat-based distros use RPM (RPM Package Manager) and YUM/DNF (Yellow Dog Updater, Modified/Dandified YUM). YUM is the primary package management tool for installing, updating, removing and managing software packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux. YUM performs dependency resolution when installing, updating, and removing software packages. YUM can manage packages from installed repositories in the system or from .rpm packages. There are many options and commands available to use with YUM.

About

Zypper is a command-line package manager for installing, updating, and removing packages. It can also be used to manage repositories. Zypper works and behaves as a regular command-line tool. It features subcommands, arguments, and options that can be used to perform specific tasks. Zypper offers several benefits compared to graphical package managers. Being a command-line tool, Zypper is faster in use and light on resources. Zypper actions can be scripted. Zypper can be used on systems that do not have graphical desktop environments. This makes it suitable for use with servers and remote machines. The simplest way to execute Zypper is to type its name, followed by a command. Additionally, you can choose from one or more global options by typing them immediately before the command. Some commands require one or more arguments. Executing subcommands in the Zypper shell, and using global Zypper options are not supported.
