Frugalware Linux is a Slackware-based Linux distribution founded by Miklós Vajna.
It is a general purpose Linux distribution, designed for intermediate users who are familiar with command-line operations.
Philosophy:
Frugalware's developers attempt to make Frugalware as simple as possible while establishing a priority based on comfortable use. Their goal is to ship consistently fresh and stable software, as close to the original source as possible.
Package management:
Frugalware does not have its own package manager but instead uses Pacman. Frugalware's packages' extension is .fpm to differentiate them from regular tarballs. Starting from 0.3pre1 an extra tool was added: repoman. It helps compile packages from source, allowing automatic creation and installation of closed-source packages. It also allows the user to download all package's buildscript (repoman update) and recompile them with specified compiler flags, "ŕ la Gentoo".
Architectures:
Frugalware currently supports x86 and x86_64 microprocessor architectures. The x86 packages are optimized for i686 processors, and the 0.3pre1 was the first release that also had an x86_64 port.
Frugalware Counter
