I seem to recall seeing once that one of the package
tools (dpkg, apt, or another, I don't remember) could
save a package list that could later be piped as input
to return a system to an identical list of packages
with one command. Am I crazy, and if not, how is this
done?
TIA,
Aaron

dpkg --get-selections /file/to/output.txt
There is no need to shunt stderr as well, since if anything is
written to it (unlikely), it will taint the file.
cat /file/to/output.txt | dpkg --set-selections
