That seems like a bit of a bodge though. If I wanted to duplicate the packages from one machine to another then I'd like the method to not alter the source machine, preserve my choices, and that some packages weren't explicitly wanted. In other words, duplicate. Perhaps the wiki's method didn't keep up with changes to the package meta-data which creates the issue. And that might be because pacman(1) doesn't help in the needed way. -- Cheers, Ralph.
