  Presently, gamma-ray tracking in germanium segmented detectors is realised by
applying two advanced, complex algorithms. While they have already triggered an
intensive R&D, they are still subject to further improvements. Making such
algorithms effective, online in real time conditions and/or offline for deeper
analysis, in data pipelines do require many additional software developments.
This review paper gives an overview of the various bricks of software produced
so far by the AGATA collaboration. It provides hints of what is foreseen for
the next phases of the project up to its full configuration namely with 180
capsules in the array.
