Message definition (Tutorials/Install KDE software)

If you find that using a graphical package manager is unbearably slow, you will want to use command-line installation. This is much faster, but the disadvantage is that you need to know the exact name of the package you want to install. To find out what commands you can use to search for packages on your system: Find your distribution's package manager below, [[Special:MyLanguage/Tutorials/Open_a_console|open a console]], and append <code>--help</code> to the name of your distribution's package manager. As an example, <code>dnf --help</code> will list the commands you can use for Fedora, but there are many and they can be confusing at first.
