“-bash: line 7: dpkg: command not found” said CentOS

Question

I'd like to use the command DPKG in my PHP script (using exec).

I'm running CentOS. Is there a way I can install the command DPKG on there?

Step by step guide would be fap-tastic.

Thanks.

with centos you should be using yum, since it is the package manager of centos.

dpkg is for debian (ubuntu) based distributions.
