A package manager or package-management system is a collection of software tools that automates the process of installing, upgrading, configuring, and removing computer programs for a computer in a consistent manner. [0]
If it installs, upgrades, configures and removes programs, App Store is indeed one of these. Apple invented package managers in 2008 (LOL).
