A new version of the AM application manager for AppImage is available. AM is an application manager that is inspired by AUR and serves as an AppImage manager, installer, and updater. It currently contains over 1800 AppImage packages and official standalone applications for GNU/Linux, which are derived from tar and zip archives.

"AM" 6.0.2 

In the database there are some scripts that work as a "metapackage", that is, they can install a set of applications and tools or allow you to choose a specific version of it.

You can find them with the -q option or by scrolling through the list (-l option), and they are usually indicated in parentheses as "installs $APPNAME".

Those currently available are:

• kdegames, suite of 40 games for KDE;
• kdeutils, about ten standard KDE utilities;
• libreoffice, allows you to choose Libreoffice with different options;
• node, install NodeJS and NPM;
• platform-tools, the suite of tools to manage Android devices (ADB, Fastboot... and more).

This version improves the -i or install: option

• preventing overwriting of existing metapackages;
• renaming the metascript with its real name at the end of the installation;
• preventing reinstallation of multiple packages pointing to the same metapackage.
