Hi,

Is there a way to dump a package list, and then take the list and use as 
a package-list-template on a new server?

I've thought about it and I'm unsure if the order of the packages on the 
list would matter since, packages in the beginning might depend on the 
ones at the end, and if so they would fail to install and give an even 
messier dependency problem.

Is a rpm -qa >package_list sufficient? How should I then proceed to 
install the packages on the list?


Best regards,
	Eric
