UPS tracking

[Cal]

How does one track a UPS package without running proprietary software on
one's own computer?

You can call into their main phone IVR system for tracking. Say "Tracking," then say your tracking number and listen for instructions.

Have you tried a URL like:

http://wwwapps.ups.com/tracking/tracking.cgi?inquiry1=TRACKINGNUMBER&type1=1

where you replace the phrase TRACKINGNUMBER with your tracking number?

If you get the tracking number wrong you can type/paste in the tracking 
number in the form and press return. I don't know if the page you're 
directed to requires Javascript.

I would have tested this myself before asking the above question but I 
don't have a valid UPS tracking number to test.

Try Parcel Tracker by Torkvemada. Here is a PPA if you are running
Ubuntu:
