Compare Packages Between Distributions

Comparing package versions between two distributions

Often times it is useful to be able to compare the versions of different packages between two distributions. This can let us know which distribution is more up to date, or if a feature has been introduced into one distribution but not the other.

This page enables us to quickly perform a side-by-side comparison of the packages available in two different distributions, or in two different versions of the same distribution. In this way we can not only compare two competing projects, but also track the progress of distributions as they adopt newer versions of software.

Please select two distributions and then a specific version of each distribution to compare.

Show: Major packages only (52) All tracked packages (224)

Complete summaries of the Proxmox and MX Linux projects are available.

Note: In case where multiple versions of a package are shipped with a distribution, only the default version appears in the table. For indication about the GNOME version, please check the "nautilus" and "gnome-shell" packages. The apache web server is listed as "httpd" and the Linux kernel is listed as "linux". The KDE desktop is represented by the "kde-workspace" and "plasma-desktop" packages and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.

A complete package list for further comparison is available.
