| + | ====== Core Packages ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Definition ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | The core packages include the packages that are absolutely essential to the system’s functionality (such as the Linux Kernel, Binutils, Coreutils, GCC, etc) and any packages where upgrading to a new version has a high potential of breaking existing packages, configurations and other stuff (such as Apache, OpenSSL, PHP, Python, Perl, etc). | ||
| + | |||
| + | In practice, it boils down to the following being classified as core packages: the kernel, toolchain, scripting language interpreters, daemons, essential libraries and essential utilities. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== List of Core Packages ===== | ||
