Open-Source installer.app Pendant
Jay Freeman aka Saurik has managed to port the Debian APT to the iPhone.
Complete with a proper BSD Subsystem (made by core) and a graphical Interface to apt called Cydia.
Remember: If it does the same, open source is always better than closed source :)
To install, just add the source http://apptapp.saurik.com/ to the "old"; installer.app.
What will be done during the installation:
- removal of the older files from BSD Subsystem
- reorganization of your filesystem to free space
- installation of Cydia and a base Telesphoreo
He also ported better working versions of e.g. Java/Python/Ruby to the phone!
