These include:
- * apt-get for retrieval of packages and information about them
- from authenticated sources and for installation, upgrade and
- removal of packages together with their dependencies
- * apt-cache for querying available information about installed
- as well as installable packages
- * apt-cdrom to use removable media as a source for packages
- * apt-config as an interface to the configuration settings

Description: APT's package managment runtime library
This library provides the common functionality for searching and
managing packages as well as information about packages.
Higher-level package managers can depend upon this library.
.
This includes:
- * retrieval of information about packages from multiple sources
- * retrieval of packages and all dependent packages
- needed to satisfy a request either through an internal
- solver or by interfacing with an external one
- * authenticating the sources and validating the retrieved data
- * installation and removal of packages in the system
- * providing different transports to retrieve data over cdrom, ftp,
- http, rsh as well as an interface to add more transports like
- https (apt-transport-https) and debtorrent (apt-transport-debtorrent).
