Some tips for new chakra adopters.

to install a new package, there is appset-qt, a pacman front-end. (pacman is
the default package management tool in arch linux)

But here, I am gonna talk about the command line.

Installing packages from official repository

$ sudo pacman -S <package-name>

(without the brackets. more package names separated with space. )

Installing packages downloaded locally

$ sudo pacman -U <package-name>

Removing an installed package

$ sudo pacman -R <package-name>

Removing an installed package with its dependencies and deleting it from
package cache

$ sudo pacman -Rsn <package-name>

Installing a package from CCR (chakra community repo)

$ ccr -S <package-name>

Installing a package from AUR (arch user repository)

$ packer -S <package name>

Searching official package for availability of a package

$ sudo pacman -Ss <package-name>

Searching local package cache to determine whether a package is installed or
not

$ sudo pacman -Q <package-name>

All of this can be done through GUI interface too.
