[Debian]Listing packages installed







You can list all the packages installed using the command:
dpkg --get-selections

With this tool it is possible to export the list of installed packages, proceed as follows:
dpkg - get-selections> my_packages
  • Then installing them on another machine with the following command:
  • Recovering the previous list:


dpkg --set-selections < my_packages
  • Installing the list:

apt-get dselect-upgrade



The dpkg-l command returns a list of installed packages with more information. However you can't use it to install a list of packages.
