Mac OS package management

I just had a very strange situation. I’ve got this Tiger CD here that came with my Macbook Pro. But it seems to be corrupt somehow, because I coudln’t install a bunch of softare off of it. when I used my older Tiger CD’s it worked like a charm. But I got stuck down a rabbit hole for a while: where the crap is all the MacOS package manager documentation?

Nowhere, it seems.

I don’t like that at all.
