Software Package Types
The software packages on RPM sites like Red Hat and rpmfind.net will have the file extension .rpm. RPM packages that contain source code have an extension .src.rpm. Other packages, such as those in the form of source code that you need to compile, come in a variety of compressed archives. These commonly have the extensions .tar.gz , .tgz , or .tar.bz2 . They are explained in detail later in the chapter. Table 29-2 lists several common file extensions that you will find for the great variety of Linux software packages available to you.
