To list everything you have installed: <br><br>dpkg --get-selections > package.list<br><br>You'll need to clean that up a bit (just the package names and all one line) but I'll leave that as an exercise for the reader.<br>
<br>To download all the packages:<br><br>apt-get -d install package.list<br><br>-d will just download the packages to /var/cache/apt/archives and won't actually install anything. If you want to store them for later I'd mount that directory to some sort of file server via NFS or samba before running apt-get and save yourself the hassle of moving them somewhere else after (or risk running out of space)</blockquote>
<div><br>Thank you very much, Ekul.<br><br>For the benefit of everybody else who might need the same feature, I've edited this wiki:<br><a href="http://wiki.maemo.org/Keep_a_safe_copy_of_your_favorite_applications">http://wiki.maemo.org/Keep_a_safe_copy_of_your_favorite_applications</a><br>
<br></div></div>Now I want to learn how to keep a mirror of the actual repositories. First I'm going to google-search for it (I know the right word is apt-mirror), but if you have any hint that would be fine :-)<br><br>
