Every time I install a package:
sudo apt-get install <pkg>
apt-get displays a list of suggested packages. I have simply ignored these so far, but some of these suggestions are actually good (and some are not).
When installing CentOS (6.2), it installs a whole bunch of packages, but the installation is often very fast, it's hard to note the names of the packages. I have a couple of questions:
1) I'm guessing I could wait for the entire installation to complete and then query for the list of installed packages on the system. How do I do that?
I am trying to do this, with no luck.
I want to have an installation with only the packages I specify.
Gets me all packages installed on my Fedora 17 system:
Code:
yum list installed

Hello Fedora people :)
I'm a Gentoo user looking to learn more about Fedora.
Question: Can Fedora show you a list of packages that have been explicitly installed on the system? Such a list would not include packages that have been installed as dependencies of other packages.
In Gentoo, you can do this simply by taking a look at your /var/lib/portage/world file.
Code:
Reading package lists...
Im learning puppet system and now need to do next task.
So we have few servers with same OS (Altlinux p6,t6) - puppet-agents and have puppet-master.
On agents installed some packages, eg. 200 packages on first, 300 on second ....
But necessary only 180 installed.
Devel packages usually contain the headers or other stuff that's necessary for compiling applications.
To keep the systems clean and manageable, I'm looking for a command to
list all-devel-packages installed by yum (also rpm's, without the suffix).
I usually use yum list installed and collect the devel's manually.
Do you recommend to remove them after compilation as a general rule?
