Searching for and installing software

Practical WEB and dctl steps for finding the correct package.

What it covers

  • WEB: Software → Search packages/products/modules → compare name/version/architecture/summary/repository → Plan install → Install → Transactions → Registry reconciliation.
  • Console: dctl → Software / Package Management → Search → Plan install package/RPM/bundle → Install → Progress/Backend log → Registry reconciliation.
  • Direct commands use the same policy: dctl search <query>; dctl install <package>; dctl install /path/package.rpm.

How to use it

  1. Search the exact name first.
  2. Check architecture/source.
  3. Plan dependencies/impact.
  4. Execute and follow the journal.
  5. Open the new module detail.

Important rules

  • The system displays target::TOKEN for extra confirmation.
  • Do not download arbitrary RPM for an empty search.
  • A local RPM passes signature/trust policy.

Examples

dctl search digi
dctl install package-name
dctl install /srv/packages/product.rpm
