oma

oma（Oh My Ailurus, 小熊猫包管理）is a package manager frontend for libapt-pkg. oma is the default package manager interface for AOSC OS.

Although it is based on apt, we did quite a bit of extra work, the goal of this project is to make apt with better user interaction (especially for AOSC OS users), you can get a feel for the differences between oma and apt with the following examples:
