A Gnome frontend for the PackageKit D-Bus packaging abstraction layer.

PAR

The Perl Archive (PAR) Toolkit helps create single-file bundles of Perl code, analogous to Java's JAR files. PAR can optionally create standalone executables that bundle the entire Perl interpreter to enable deployment to machines that lack Perl.
