CLUSTER PACKAGES-APPIMAGE-DEBIAN · 5 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-04-04

Linux package format converters

This cluster comprises tools and recipes that convert or repackage Linux software across native distribution formats (deb, rpm, AppImage) for cross-distro compatibility or offline installs. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from — it predates the index or its members are undated. On traction, debark and ZLynstall each show 1 star, while waft-bin shows 0 stars, making the first two the activity leaders.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 5 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
