Anyone know how to get a list of all the installed packages in a system, i have been running kubuntu on a G4 mac laptop for about 6 months now and have lots of little things installed to make the system do what i need it to do. I have now started building a new desktop system (its useable but not complete atm) and rather than try and remember or browse down through the list of packages in adept on the laptop, is there a way to get it to output them all so i can look down a shorter list and select what i need to install (when my hard drive comes later hopefully!)?

Re: Get list of installed packages?
well there it was in the home folder, it's huge! Would I want to turn this into a .sh or paste it into terminal? It seems like alot of these would be there by default, I was expecting it to show me just the stuff that I've installed after install.

Re: Get list of installed packages?
dpkg --set-selections will do nicely.
You can also do it with the Synaptic GUI (if you have it installed), the choices are in the 'File' menu.Comment
