Although there are many packages in the Granular repository (repo), below are listed the RPMs that are produced by Team Granular and are available in the Granular repo.

These are categorized according to how they are different from the corresponding PCLinuxOS RPMs.

NOTE: The list below specifies the names of SRPMs present in the Granular repo. These SRPMs may have one or more RPMs associated with them, with similar or different names.
