I was using either Yaourt or Packer since long time to install AUR packages but i recently came to know that these AUR helpers are no more maintained as per Arch Wiki page update (Stalled).

However Yaourt and Packer is still working as a charm even now also but i would like to take this opportunity to find the best alternative for AUR helper.

After done a small google search i came to know about Yet another Yogurt (YAY), It’s a best and reliable AUR helper written in Go Language.

• GNU OrgaDoc 1.0 Released For Managing Documents Between Computers

  GNU OrgaDoc is a means of copying and maintaining a pool of documents between a set of computers. Document synchronization is handled by rsync or unison and is done without needing a database server or other components.

Nix is a powerful, purely functional package management system designed for reliable and reproducible package management, released under the terms of the GNU LGPLv2.1. It is the primary package management system in NixOS, a lesser known Linux distribution.

Nix offers atomic upgrades and rollbacks, multiple versions of package installation, multi-user package management and effortless setup of build environments for a package, regardless of what programming languages and tools a developer is using.

Under Nix, packages are built from a functional package language called “Nix expressions”. This functional approach to package management guarantees that installing or upgrading one package cannot break other packages.

Nix also has multi-user support, which implies that normal (or non-privileged) system users can securely install packages and each user is identified by a profile (a collection of packages in the Nix store that appear in the user’s PATH).

• Best Free Linux Computer Algebra Systems

  A computer algebra system (CAS) is mathematical software that can manipulate mathematical formulae in a way similar to the traditional manual computations of mathematicians and scientists. This type of system supports a wide range of mathematics including linear algebra, calculus, and algebraic and ordinary differential equations.

  A CAS offers a rigorous environment for defining and working with structures such as groups, rings, fields, modules, algebras, schemes, curves, graphs, designs, codes and many others.

  They have been extensively used in higher education.
