 all the calls except for the ``Apt()`` one and will only try to install the packages using the

+The ``package_manager`` tool allows you to specify the package version of the system package
+to be installed using the format ``<package-name>=<package-version>``, for example ``Apt(self).install(["libgl-dev=0.0.1"])``.
+The system package managers that support versions are ``Apt``, ``Yum``, ``Dnf``, ``Brew``, ``Pkg``, ``Chocolatey``, ``Apk`` and ``Zypper``.
+On systems where package versioning is not supported by the package manager, in our case ``PacMan`` and ``PkgUtil``, the provided version will be ignored.

 * *Apt* for **Linux** with distribution names: *ubuntu*, *debian*, *raspbian* or *linuxmint*
 * *Yum* for **Linux** with distribution names: *pidora*, *scientific*, *xenserver*, *amazon*, *oracle*, *amzn*, *almalinux* or *rocky*
