Cloning a Debian system - identical packages and versions
I have long wished for the ability to install a Debian system specifying both the package list and the exact versions of the packages installed.
dpkg --get-selections | ssh newhost dpkg --set-selections
is useful but always chooses the latest version, and especially when using testing or unstable, it is sometimes necessary to temporarily downgrade a package from the latest version available.
Will be deletet if portet to new repo
