Abstract
We have developed a cxnet software in Python to create, store and investigate the network of the software packages of Linux distributions that uses deb packages. We have investigated the software package network of three Linux distributions: Ubuntu, Debian and Arch Linux. For Ubuntu we have found, that between two versions the new incoming edges for the packages is nearly proportional with their in-degree.
