Just a little thing I like to do before doing an update or
clean install on another system.
#!/usr/bin/bash
rpm --qf "%{NAME}.%{ARCH}\n" -qa | sort | grep -v
gpg-pubkey > installed_pkgs"$(date +%F)".txt
When setting up a new machine, a clean install doesn't
have a number of packages that I've added over time, so
run this once in a while to keep a list of packages.
If doing an upgrade it will try to install them so no real
need. But if doing a clean install, and then running dnf
with this file piped into an install option. It will flag many
as already installed which is no issue, but may find a
number that are no included in default install. May have
to remove a few lines to get it to run cleanly.
Is also interesting to run command afterwards creating a
new file, and comparing what was added to list..
