<p>An installation of <b>openmamba milestone2</b> (stable release) automatically provides access to
|
|
some archives of RPM packages called <i>repositories</i> or <i>channels</i> from which you can install software packages:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="/distribution/distromatic.html?tag=milestone2">milestone2</a> channel is
|
|
the main archive for software packages that constitute the current stable release of the openmamba distribution;
|
|
<li><a href="/distribution/distromatic.html?tag=milestone2-games">milestone2-games</a>
|
|
channel contains apart games which take a lot of storage space;
|
|
<li><a href="/distribution/distromatic.html?tag=milestone2-updates">milestone2-updates</a>
|
|
contains the security and functionality updates that have been made available after the stable release
|
|
of the operating system.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>The packages in these repositories can be installed using the package management tool which comes integrated
|
|
with your openmamba desktop environment or using the command line commands <i>pkcon</i> and <i>smart</i> tools.
|
|
|
|
<p>Use of the stable distribution is recommended to all users who use the system in production
|
|
environment and expect the available functionalities not to change for long periods.

<b>ADDITIONAL CHANNELS</b><br>
|

<p>The additional channels contain more up-to-date software packages which are considered stable but are waiting
|
|
to be fully tested before being made available to all users.
|

<p>In order to get updates from an additional channel you need to enable it in the <i>Software sources</i>
|
|
settings dialog of the openmamba packages management tool.
|
|
A channel can be as well enabled by command line by issuing the following command:

|
<pre>pkcon repo-enable channel_name</pre>
