The tool presents packages organized by categories and allows users to manage system software without using command-line tools.
CAVEATS
Legacy tool, not available on modern Fedora/RHEL systems. Replaced by GNOME Software, dnfdragora, or dnf command line. Requires X11 display.
HISTORY
pirut was the default graphical package manager in early Fedora releases (Fedora Core 5-6 era). It was superseded by PackageKit-based tools and eventually GNOME Software as Fedora modernized its desktop software management.
