AIX Open Source

The AIX Toolbox for Open Source Applications is the official IBM site for downloading AIX open source for Linux packages. This site contains many open source and GNU software packages built and tested for AIX IBM Systems.

Open Source RPM packages from the AIX Toolbox for Open Source Software are not supported through IBM support; however, an "AIX Open Source Software Group" is available on the IBM Community. This team provides best effort support for installing or configuring a Toolbox package, and will address requests for new packages to be added to the collection.
