What is a package manager?

A package manager is a program that installs and uninstalls software, and keeps track of all the components each piece of software needs.
To add or remove applications in Ubuntu, you need to use a package manager. It will automatically download the software required from the Internet and install it.
There are three main package managers you can use in Ubuntu:
* Add/Remove Applications - The easiest way to install and uninstall programs.
* Synaptic - Advanced control of software and other system components.
* Apt - If you prefer using the Terminal.
If you open more than one of these programs at once, they may not work. Close them all and open just one.
