When managing packages on Linux systems, the choice of the package manager hinges on the distribution in use. Zypper, APT (Advanced Package Tool), and DNF (Dandified Yum) are the main package managers for openSUSE, Debian-based systems, and Fedora-based systems, respectively. Each of these tools necessitates proper configuration of software repositories to ensure smooth installation, update, and removal of packages. In this blog post, we'll dive into configuring software repositories for Zypper and also touch upon APT and DNF for a well-rounded understanding. A software repository, or "repo", is a storage location from which software packages can be retrieved and installed on a computer.
