Just this weekend I used fzf (and a bit of python glue) to create my own TUI wrapper around OpenSUSE's package manager, zypper. With fzf's multi-selection mode I can select multiple packages at once to install or remove. Using fzf's preview command feature I can use zypper info (with a little bit of my own caching wrapping it) to display package info as I go through the list. A custom header shows the shortcuts for installing, removing, etc.
