PkgSeek
Search 1.9M+ packages across 31 distros — CVEs included.
Hey PH 👋 I'm Alan M. , maker of PkgSeek.
I built this after one too many "which package ships this file / which version has the CVE fixed?" rabbit holes across pkgs.org, NVD and distro wikis. 🫠
PkgSeek indexes 1.9M+ packages across 31 targets — Debian, Arch, Fedora, RHEL, openEuler, openKylin, UOS, OpenWrt, FreeBSD, Homebrew and more. Compare versions, check CVEs + fixes, reverse-lookup files, or paste an error to get the install command.
What I'm proud of: open by default. Free REST API + MCP, daily Parquet/JSON dumps, no challenge, no 10,000-result cap.

It's an early v0.1, so today I'm here to listen more than launch. Try nginx, openssl or /usr/bin/convert — then tell me what to index next. Nix? Guix? What's missing? 🙏
Upvote if you've ever opened 8 tabs just to answer one package question 😅
