extrepo - External repository manager
https://salsa.debian.org/extrepo-team/e ... pos/debian
https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/fo ... po.1p.html

Description: External repository manager

External repositories are additional software package repositories that

are not maintained by Debian. Before extrepo, maintainers of such

repositories would suggest that you download and execute an (unsigned)

shell script as root, or that you download and install their (unsigned)

package, which is not ideal for security.

The extrepo package tries to remedy this, by providing a curated list

of external repositories that can be enabled by a simple command,

allowing unsigned scripts to be replaced by a simple "extrepo enable

example.com_repo".

Note, however, that while the repositories are curated, and that any

repositories with malicious content will be removed and/or disabled

when detected, no warranty is made by the Debian project as to the

security or quality of the software in these third-party repositories.

Not exactly a package manage in and of itself, but it belongs here.
apt-fast is a shellscript wrapper for apt-get and aptitude that can drastically improve apt download times by downloading packages in parallel, with multiple connections per package.
Install info:
https://github.com/ilikenwf/apt-fast#de ... -derivates

Or you can get the .deb package from : https://apt.raspbian-addons.org/debian/ ... .1_all.deb

Nala uses a similar method and it is actively being developed.

[Head_on_a_Stick]

apt-fast is a shellscript wrapper for apt-get and aptitude that can drastically improve apt download times by downloading packages in parallel, with multiple connections per package.

That already happens with plain apt(8) if http://deb.debian.org/ is used in the sources (which is now the default).

I might be wrong but I don't think apt-fast will make any difference in that situation. The redirector certainly saturates my 70MB connection anyway.
