# Requesting A Package
|
|
|
|
Packages are how users install Software in Solus, however if we are missing one you can let us know using our Task Tracker.
|
|
|
|
**Please look to see if a bug has been filed for the software or library you require**. If there isn't an existing request, you can use the template below for requesting packages to be added to the Solus
|
|
Package Repository or Third Party Repository.
|
|
|
|
Please provide as much of the following information as possible:
|
|
|
|
- Name
|
|
- Homepage
|
|
- Why should this be included in the repository? If we already offer similar software in our repository **or third party**, please provide information on what your proposed software does that our existing offerings don't (*differentiators*).
|
|
- Is it Open Source (yes/no)
|
|
- If yes: Set the Tags to have "Package Requests"
|
|
- If no: Set the Tags to have "Third Party Repository"
|
|
- How many users do you anticipate will use this software?
|
|
- Link to source tarball/zip file
|
|
- master.zip files **are not permitted**. We require versioned tarballs, for example: "1.2.3.tar.gz".

Please put this information into a Bug Report (create via "Create Task") on our Developer Portal via the Maniphest section on https://dev.solus-project.com/ |
