In the database there are some scripts that work as a "metapackage", that is, they can install a set of applications and tools or allow you to choose a specific version of it.

You can find them with the -q option or by scrolling through the list (-l option), and they are usually indicated in parentheses as "installs $APPNAME".

Those currently available are:

  • kdegames, suite of 40 games for KDE;
  • kdeutils, about ten standard KDE utilities;
  • libreoffice, allows you to choose Libreoffice with different options;
  • node, install NodeJS and NPM;
  • platform-tools, the suite of tools to manage Android devices (ADB, Fastboot... and more).

This version improves the -i or install: option

  • preventing overwriting of existing metapackages;
  • renaming the metascript with its real name at the end of the installation;
  • preventing reinstallation of multiple packages pointing to the same metapackage.
