  [1X1.1 [33X[0;0YWhat does the PackageManager package do?[133X[101X
  
  [33X[0;0YThis  package  provides  the  ability to install or remove a package using a
  single  command:  [2XInstallPackage[102X  ([14X2.1-1[114X) or [2XRemovePackage[102X ([14X2.2-1[114X). The user
  can  specify  a  package  to  install  using  its name, or using a URL to an
  archive,   a   repository,   or   a  [10XPackageInfo.g[110X  file.  When  installing,
  PackageManager also attempts to compile the package, build its documentation
  if necessary, and ensure that its dependencies are also installed.[133X
  
  
  [1X1.2 [33X[0;0YWhat does the PackageManager package not do?[133X[101X
  
  [33X[0;0YAt  present,  PackageManager  is  fairly basic, without many of the advanced
  features available in package managers such as pip or apt. For instance, the
  user cannot install a particular version of a package except by specifying a
  URL; nor can the user update all packages in one command. Removing a package
  will  not remove any of its dependencies, since we do not track how packages
  were installed. When a package is installed, no tests are run to ensure that
  it  is  compatible  with the installed version of GAP. Any of these features
  might  be  added  in the future. Other feature requests can be posted on the
  issue tracker at https://github.com/gap-packages/PackageManager/issues.[133X
