~Official software packages are available via the [[ppm Puppy Package Manager]]:
~ - using the start menu: //Menu > Setup > Puppy Package Manager//

~There are two main software package types, identified by their file extension:
~ - **//.pet//** (intended for all full and frugal Puppy installations)
~ - **//.sfs//** (intended for all frugal or LiveDVD installations)
~Other software package types:
~ - **//.tar.xz//** or **//.txz//** (intended for all full and frugal Puppy installations)
~ - //.pup// (obsolete; superseded by //.pet//)
====Software installation====
~Ensure that the latest available versions of the following packages are installed: [[bzip2]], [[curl]], [[dosfstools]], [[e2fsprogs]], [[grep]], [[ntfs3g]], [[tar]], [[wget]], [[xz]]
~Since the installation of any software package involves occupying partition space, the //installation will fail// if there is not sufficient, free space on the target installation partition. Sometimes installing PET and TXZ packages to frugal Puppy installations requires the amount of free space //inside the personal storage file// to be at least 3 times the size of the package.
~One needs to know to which location a software package has been downloaded to. If a Web browser is used for downloading, then it would need to be manually configured to the user's preference.
