What's the difference between eth and cpp-ethereum?

Question

In Ubuntu, what's the difference between apt-get install eth vs. apt-get install cpp-ethereum?

They both seem to install the same packages but seemingly not the same versions.

Answer 1

In this context eth is the more updated version of cpp-ethereum.

cpp-ethereum was renamed to TurboEthereum in September 2015 by the core dev team.

TurboEthereum is now a full software suite that includes:

• ++eth (eth), the mainline Ethereum CLI client
• AlethOne (alethone), mainline miner
• AlethZero (alethzero), powerful Ethereum client
• Mix (mix), DApp IDE
• and a number of other tools.
