Packages can contain any file(s), not just software
editIt is possible to create a package that contains something other than an installation-related file. For example, you can create a package that contains only an MS Word document. I do not have the knowledge to update the page, but I hope someone else does.
- While packages (.tar, .zip, .sit) can contain any kind of file software packages contain software.

package symbols
editWhen i go to most linux download sites i see symbols next to each packet and i have no idea what they mean. A brief explanation of the symbols would be nice. The symbols pictures are probably free to display. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.156.171.166 (talk) 20:26, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
Why installation?
editWhy does 'installation' needs disambiguation. It shouldn't be on this page. --UnicornTapestry (talk) 23:28, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
