And did you reapply them to Mint 8? Keeping such a list is essential. As a bonus, it is trivial to make the list executable. Hint: it becomes a list of package install commands. Simply run it after a fresh Linux install. This and related tricks have halved the time it takes me to get a fresh install working with all my old applications. Since the major distros issue a new version every 6-9 months doing this is very worthwhile. Martin
