- Description
- The RPM file format, associated with the Red Hat Package Manager (RPM), is a package management system primarily used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and its derivatives like Fedora and CentOS. An RPM file is essentially a container for software or data that allows for easy installation, upgrading, and removal of software on a Linux system. It encapsulates compiled software, metadata about the package such as its version, architecture, and dependencies, and configuration files necessary for the software to run correctly.
- .TBZ is a file that contains TAR archived files then compresses them using BZIP compression algorithm. Commonly used with UNIX OS.
