We were thinking about that, but I have uneasy feelings about recreating packages from the files in a live system. I don't have anything conrete in mind to back this up, it just doesn't feel right (to me). For example, using the original package name and version when recreating a package feels wrong (since the content is now different), but using a different name or version might mess up the dependency relations. Dunno. I should definitly look at dpkg-repack more closely. For the immediate feature, we will be going with the "backup list of installed applications and offer to install them again after a restore." _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
