Which graphical updater on stretch with KDE?

#1 Post by linuxsat »

Hi, I'm a new user of Debian (previously on (k)ubuntu) and I just install the 9.2 on a 5480 Latitude Dell laptop.
I choose the KDE environement, and I saw that that two graphical package manager are present by default: Plasma Discover and Apper.
I dont like very much Plasma Discover and i remind me that under kubuntu Apper was replaced a long time ago by Muon.

My question(s): Is Apper still maintained? More important may I use Synaptic or Muon as graphical package manager instead?

Thanks for any comments!

Apper works nice on my end, though i don't have anything agains Discover. It's nice to have a functional software boutique, but it doesn't detect packages or libraries on my end, so for that i use apper without encountering issues.
