Graphical user interface for managing your Linux applications. Supports AppImage, Debian and Arch packages (including AUR), Flatpak, Snap and native Web applications - vinifmor/bauh
It’s probably not very simple. Bauh is a bit clunky compared to this app. If I was going to work on extending functionality, I’d probably look into forking Synaptic first.
Mate, you are not being clear at all. I’ve clarified this multiple times. If you’re unwilling to acknowledge that out-of-the-box package managers do not generally include non-native package formats, this conversation can’t progress.
They’re saying they want something like Synaptic (mostly for its “multi-select”, apparently, though I’m not sure what that means?), but have it support AppImages, Flatpaks, Snaps, etc., instead of just Debs like Synaptic does.
God, this is a great start to what I want. I want this to have a baby with Synaptic. This is great for cleaning up though.
What’s Synaptic? I have once contributed to bauh, so I might include that if it’s a simple feature.

You need a GUI-on-GUI thing to make it all work for you?
I want to see it all in a single database and manage it all in one place in a GUI with multi select.
That’s what your package manager is for. I’m unaware of a distro that doesn’t include a GUI for this.
It does not include appimages or various other formats that are included in this app. This is an all in one solution.
You’re the author here, right?
If anything, it would be MORE useful for beginners if it included Snaps or Flatpaks.
I did not make this. It does include Snaps and Flatpaks and Debs and a lot of other formats. Your general package managers do not.
Okay, so what’s your problem with my comment then?
