This page uses a table to display the correspondence of package management commands among some of the most popular Linux distributions. The original
inspiration was given by openSUSE's Software Management Command Line Comparison (http://old-
en.opensuse.org/Software_Management_Command_Line_Comparison).
Tip: Arch users having to temporarily deal with another Linux distribution can use pacapt (https://github.com/icy/pacapt), a simple wrapper around other
package managers.
Note:
Some of the tools described here are specific to a certain version of pacman. The -Qk option is new in pacman 4.1.
The command pkgfile can be found in the pkgfile (https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?name=pkgfile) package.

dependencies, this command can perform those updates.
