- The correct title of this article is urpmi. The initial letter is shown capitalized due to technical restrictions.
urpmi is a Mandriva Linux package management tool for installing, removing, updating and querying software packages of local or remote (networked) media. It wraps around the package manager rpm with the aim that the user should not have to suffer the often-encountered dependency hell. It works with official sources from Mandriva or unofficial sources such as those from the Penguin Liberation Front.
