Hi all, I'd appreciate some advice, please. I'm sure this has come up before, but despite Googling, can't find it right now, so if anyone has a link, that would help.
My main development system here basically runs Squeeze/KDE, but with a lot of packages added, mostly from the repositories, but also some from elsewhere, which for the purposes of this exercise can be ignored. In particular, I have a somewhat special choice of perl module packages, from the repository. I'm now building a new box on which I want to install Wheezy, but with the identical set of packages (where appropriate) as my squeeze box, so there won't be any surprises when I switch my work to the new box. So my outline plan is to do a standard netinst for wheezy on the new box, and then wave a magic wand to get it to install all the missing packages. All I'm missing is the magic wand. I'm hoping that all I need is to copy one or more files from the squeeze box onto the wheezy box, which will tell apt what needs installing, but my apt-fu is lacking. Does anyone here have experience/knowledge of this process?
