There are several ways to manage your applications in Kubuntu. In order to add or remove applications you need to use a package manager. The following package managers are described in this chapter:
Add/Remove Programs - this is the simplest way to manage programs.
Adept - this graphical program provides an advanced way of managing programs;
APT - this is a powerful command line program to manage programs.
You may also wish to increase the number of programs available to install through your package managers. Not all the programs that exist for Kubuntu are available by default. You may have to add extra repositories in order to make them available: that is also described in this chapter.
Finally, this chapter explains how to update your system.
You can only have one package management application running at a time. For example, if you are running Add/Remove Programs and try to launch Adept, it will fail with an error. Close the running application before you relaunch the new one.
