G Alternatives is a tool that provides a simple GUI interface for update-alternatives, allowing system administrator to select which programs provide specific services for the user by default. Some advanced features are also provided, including adding/removing/editing alternative groups/options or managing a custom database directory.

Python 3 required. It's intended to be installed via apt install galternatives, but for those who don't like to install, the tarball (python3 -m galternatives) should also work.

Any question or enhancement is welcomed. Please send your feedback to package maintainers of galternatives package in Debian or submit bugs onto Debian Bug Tracking System (BTS) using reportbug tool in Debian.
