Package: dpkg (1.10.28) [essential]

Package maintenance system for Debian

This package contains the programs which handle the installation and removal of packages on your system.

The primary interface for the dpkg suite is the `dselect' program; a more low-level and less user-friendly interface is available in the form of the `dpkg' command.

In order to unpack and build Debian source packages you will need to install the developers' package `dpkg-dev' as well as this one.
