How to install under linux

To know how to install software under Linux, we first need to understand the Linux application software installation package.

Linux software installation packages are divided into three types: (Recommended learning: linux operation and maintenance)

The tar package is packaged using the UNIX system packaging tool tar, such as software-1.2.3-1.tar.gz

rpm package is a package packaging format provided by Redhat Linux, such as software-1.2.3-1.i386.rpm

dpkg package is a package packaging format provided by Debain Linux, such as software-1.2.3-1.deb.

The naming of most Linux application software packages also has certain rules, which follow:

Name-Version-Revision-Type

Installation method:

1) tar package

Decompress the file: Execute the "tar -xzvf package name" command to complete the decompression and unpacking work in one step

Execute the "./configure" command to prepare for compilation

Execute the "make" command to compile the software

Execute "make install" to complete the software installation

Execute the "make clean" command to delete the temporary files generated during installation

2) rpm package

There are two ways to install the rpm package:

Method 1: rpm command

安装：rpm -ivh 软件包名.rpm

Method 2: yum command

yum (full name Yellow dog Updater, Modified) is a Shell front-end package manager in Fedora and RedHat and SUSE.

Based on RPM package management, it can automatically download and install RPM packages from designated servers. It can automatically handle dependencies and install all dependent software packages at once, without the need to download and install them again and again. yum provides commands to find, install, and delete a certain, a group, or even all software packages, and the commands are concise and easy to remember.

安装：yum install 软件包名

deb package

Two ways:

dpkg command

Installation: dpkg –i software package name.deb

Uninstall: dpkg –e software name

Query: Query the software packages installed on the current system: dpkg –l ‘Software package name’

apt-get command

apt-get command can only be used for packages in repositories, and cannot be used to process deb packages downloaded by yourself. If you want to process deb packages downloaded by yourself, you can only use dpkg command
