​
Installing a package

You can install a package by using

spkg install [packagegroup]/<packagename>

packagegroup is optional, if there should be multiple packages with the same name, please use packagegroup

Replace <packagename> with the package you want to install e.g. htop, libbismuth-git or python3.12.

​
Uninstalling a package

Uninstalling a package is very similar to installing a package, just run the same command you used to install the package, but replace install with remove, like this:

spkg remove [packagegroup]/<packagename>

Package groups apply to removing packages too.
