Introduction – apt-get is the APT package handling utility. I am using apt-get command for my day to day activities, which is very handy tool on Debian/Ubuntu Linux. Which can be used for installing/updating or removing Debian package (.deb), updating system etc. So I was thinking about using apt-get on Redhat (RPM) based Linux. is there any way to use it? the answer is Yes!! there is way to use apt-get on Redhat (RPM) based Linux.
root@localhost:~#rpm -ivh http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/x86_64/dag/RPMS/apt-0.5.15lorg3.2-1.el4.rf.x86_64.rpm
Add following mirror –
