Simple Package Manager (SPM) is intended to operate in a way similar to existing package managers (apt, dpkg, Pacman, etc.). Instead of supporting a centralized package repository, SPM allows remote packages to be downloaded and installed automatically, given their URL. This allows a developer to package and distribute software via a package management system without having to worry about the many different formats and Linux distribution repositories.

SPM (Simple Package Manager) 0.1.1-rev2

What makes this QoS script different than many other scripts is its general auto-configuration, use of iptables to ease local customization of classification, transparent IPv6 support, and the ability to handle varying connection speeds (such as those seen on contended xDSL connections). The script should work on any relatively modern kernel (since 2009), and is being used and tested by the author on his WAG54Gv2. Release Notes: This is a complete rewrite from scratch and a new focus
