Grop Alternatives

Grop is described as 'The graphic interface of porg. It uses and depends on the GTKMM library (version 3.4.0 or later). It's not meant to be a replacement of porg, since it lacks some important features like logging package installations, but it allows for manipulating the installed' and is an app. There are four alternatives to Grop for a variety of platforms, including Linux, Linux Mint, Ubuntu, Debian and Go (Programming Language) apps. The best Grop alternative is Advanced Package Tool (APT), which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Grop are eget, Porg and CheckInstall.
