GreenSocs Root Install : GreenSocs Package Management

NOTE: If you installed GSPM before 07/25/2007, the update feature may not work due a major change in the gcc package, which is a requirement for many other packages. The easiest way to upgrade is to reinstall all from scratch. We are very sorry for the inconvinience.

The GreenSocs Package Management (GSPM) is a package management system based on the debian dpkg system. Once you have installed GSPM, it will enable the easy installation, evaluation (and removal) of any compatible package.

If you have problems when installing GSPM, please consult the troubleshooting section. If it does not help, send an email to bartho@greensocs.com">bartho@greensocs.com including as many information as possible about the error, and also the brand and version of the OS you are using.
