| This page is about the ways to list the installed packages in a Debian system and how to create a file with this list. This file can be uploaded to the web (i.e. from other computer with Internet connection) to download new packages. | |

| === List all packages installed === With version and architecture information, and description, in a table: {{{ dpkg-query -l }}} |

| Package names only, one per line: {{{ dpkg --get-selections | cut -f 1 }}} === List packages using a search pattern === It is possible to add a search pattern to list packages: {{{ dpkg-query -l 'foo*' }}} === Show status of all packages on the system === To check the status of all packages on your system: {{{ dpkg -l | more }}} This will show all packages (1 line each) that are in various stages of install (this includes packages that were removed but not purged). To show only the installed: {{{ dpkg -l | grep '^i' }}} to filter through grep to get results for "i" You can also use: {{{ apt-cache pkgnames }}} You can if you are using Debian Linux use dpkg command to list installed software: {{{ dpkg --get-selections }}} And store the list installed software to a file called /backup/installed-software.log {{{ dpkg --get-selections > /backup/installed-software.log }}} You can also find package information in the next directories (you can use DebianPkg:mc or other FileManager to browse them): * {{{/var/lib/apt/lists/*}}} * {{{/var/lib/dpkg/available}}}: list of available packages. * {{{/var/lib/dpkg/status}}} :statuses of available packages. This file contains information about whether a package is marked for removing or not, whether it is installed or not, etc. A package marked reinst-required is broken and requires reinstallation. == Restore installed software == After re-installing base system you can immediately re-install all software. You need dselect: {{{ apt-get install dselect }}} Then you have to type following commands: {{{ dpkg --get-selections > /backup/installed-software.log dpkg --set-selections < /backup/installed-software.log }}} Now your list is imported use apt-get, [[Synaptic]] or other PackageManagement tools. To install the package: {{{ apt-get dselect-upgrade }}} All this with a single command: {{{ aptitude install $(cat /backup/installed-software.log | awk '{print $1}') }}} |
