+= APT/Yum Repository =
+
+
+Many GNU/Linux distributions support either APT or Yum as the package manager.  RTEMS provides repositories compatible with both package managers.
+
+RTEMS currently does not distribute Debian format packages.  There is nothing wrong with Debian, there are just so many hours in the day.  If this interests you, sponsor Debian tool packaging support and/or volunteer to help.
+= Apt Instructions =
+
+
+APT is the Advanced Packaging Tool developed by the Debian Project and extended by Connectiva to support RPMs. This tool can be used to ease downloading and updating the RTEMS Toolset RPMs.
+
+The following is the contents of the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rtems.list needed to access the RTEMS Tool APT Repository:
+
+{{{
+rpm ftp://ftp.rtems.com/pub/rtems/linux/redhat/7.3/i386 apt rtems-4.6 rtems-4.7
+rpm-src ftp://ftp.rtems.com/pub/rtems/linux/redhat/7.3/i386 apt rtems-4.6 rtems-4.7
+}}}?
+
+After adding the RTEMS APT Repository to the set available, execute the following command to fetch the list of tools available:
+
+{{{
+apt-get -d update
+}}}
+
+The above command should be executed periodically to learn of updates that are available.
+
+Once APT has learned of new packages, the following downloads and either installs an initial or updates an existing set of RTEMS 4.6 tools for the sparc-rtems target:
+
+{{{
+c=sparc
+apt-get install rtems-4.6-automake-rtems
+apt-get install rtems-4.6-autoconf-rtems
+apt-get install rtems-4.6-${c}-rtems-binutils
+apt-get install rtems-4.6-${c}-rtems-gdb
+apt-get install rtems-4.6-${c}-rtems-gcc
+apt-get install rtems-4.6-${c}-rtems-c++
+apt-get install rtems-4.6-${c}-rtems-gnat
+</pre?
+Thanks to Ralf for providing the impetus to support APT clients.
