| michael@13 | 69 | |
| michael@13 | 70 | OpenPKG is the world leading instrument for deployment and maintenance |
| michael@13 | 71 | of Open Source software when administration crosses Unix platform |
| michael@13 | 72 | boundaries. The OpenPKG project is a collaboration effort with the |
| michael@13 | 73 | goal of creating and maintaining portable and easy to install software |
| michael@13 | 74 | packages for use on the major Unix server platforms. |
| michael@13 | 75 | |
| michael@13 | 76 | The unique OpenPKG architecture leverages proven technologies like |
| michael@13 | 77 | Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) to establish a unified administration |
| michael@13 | 78 | environment, independent of the underlying operating system. OpenPKG |
| michael@13 | 79 | is completely self-contained and does not even need a preinstallation |
| michael@13 | 80 | of RPM. Instead, RPM is provided as an OpenPKG RPM package itself plus |
| michael@13 | 81 | a tricky bootstrapping procedure in order to allow one to create from |
| michael@13 | 82 | scratch the initial state of the whole OpenPKG software packaging |
| michael@13 | 83 | system. |
