      A while ago I read something about bauh, a kind of universal application manager/installer. Recently I ran into it again – it seems a great project ( https://github.com/vinifmor/bauh ), and something that, in my opinion, Linux desperatly needs- a single “app store”- an all-in-one stop to install all kinds of apps for Linux.
      I tested the webapps part (a strange but kind of useful idea, for basic users) and appimages – I tried a bit, but could not find a way to get it to manager .deb packages…
      Even if it just manages webapps, appimages and flatpaks, I think it would be a nice addition to antiX (either installed by default or just available in the Package Installer)

        That sounds great, let’s hope it won’t be a problem for the stability of the system and we will soon be able to enjoy something like this.

          Hello PPC.
          I tested bauh-0.10.2-x86_64.AppImage.
          I was able to download AppImage and after applying the commands in the terminal:

          $ sudo apt update

          $ sudo apt install aptitude

          After that, the .deb packages became available for installation. I was able to install programs with bauh-0.10.2-x86_64.AppImage that Synaptic cannot “see”.
          Thank you so much for sharing this more important solution.

          Olá PPC.
          Eu testei o bauh-0.10.2-x86_64.AppImage.
          Eu consegui baixar AppImage e após aplicar os comandos no terminal:

          $ sudo apt update

          $ sudo apt install aptitude

          Depois disso, os pacotes .deb passaram a estar disponíveis para serem instalados. Eu consegui instalar programas com o bauh-0.10.2-x86_64.AppImage que o Synaptic não consegue “enxergar”.
          Muito obrigado por compartilhar mais esta importante solução.

            Hello,

            Yes, it is interesting, I tested it too …

            bauh (ba-oo), formerly known as fpakman, is a graphical interface for managing your Linux software (packages/applications). It currently supports the following formats: AppImage, ArchLinux packages (including AUR), Debian packages, Flatpak, Snap and Web applications.

            Key features

            A management panel where you can: search, install, uninstall, upgrade, downgrade and launch you applications (and more…)
            Tray mode: it launches attached to the system tray and publishes notifications when there are software updates available
            System backup: it integrates with Timeshift to provide a simple and safe backup process before applying changes to your system
            Custom themes: it’s possible to customize the tool’s style/appearance. More at Custom themes
