Hadron Gnu/Linux has own package management system which is called lpms. Hadron consists of modules, and user can activate them on the fly. This version is suitable daily use for advanced Linux users.
The system uses a new tool called lpms, written in Python. It is similar to well-known package managers but has important differences. For instance, lpms compile nothing and does not copy and file on Hadron.
Portability is major feature of Hadron. Basically Hadron is a live Linux distribution which is developed to run on USB sticks. Nevertheless, Hadron can also run on hard disk and cdrom as well.
In our approach, modules are a file system that mounts to root. Otherwise,modules are similiar to packages of other Linux distributions. But a module can include many packages. Modules are described by using XML and small Python scripts. lpms tool reads XML spec file and collects files from the host system. For more information about this process, click here.
Hadron has software repositories. New modules(new packages) can be installed from these repositories. To do this, you simply run the following command :
# lpms -a module-name
lpms resolves dependencies automatically and downloads the needed modules from servers. In addition, lpms can support more than one software repository.
