The package manager downloads applications from a <emphasis>software repository</emphasis>, which is a location on the Internet which stores a collection of applications. These applications come bundled in <emphasis>packages</emphasis>, which contain all of the information needed for installation. You can download packages yourself, using your web browser, if you like, but it is generally much more convenient to let the package manager handle this for you.
