You can also get this menu by left-clicking the box next to the package name (in the S column) or from the Package drop-down menu at the top of the window.
You do this by right-clicking on the package in the package list panel and selecting Mark for installation from the pop-up menu. Once you have found the package or packages you wish to install you first mark them for installation. The Synaptic and the Repositories page gives an overview of how to use Synaptic and specifically search for software to install. The easiest way is to use Synaptic Package Manager which is the graphical application used to manage software on PCLinuxOS. This has the advantage that the software has been built and tested to be compatible with PCLinuxOS and also will ensure that any additional packages (dependencies) required by the software will automatically be installed. The recommended way of installing additional software is to install from the official PCLinuxOS repository.
