Here's what mine looks like:

--quiet-mode ^
--disable-buggy-antivirus ^
--packages ^
aria2,^
atool,^
autoconf,^
automake,^
autossh,^

Step 2: A script that can write out such a script to clone an existing installation. Just translate the contents of /etc/setup/installed.db to the form --packages wants.


Step 3: Modify the script to find the last-used setup.ini (registry?), put the packages there into a dependency graph, then compute the minimum set of packages needed to clone the installation.

No, I am not volunteering. :)
