That's what I meant, yes. It may be easier looking into some of the
other suggestions though; some of them seem a little less labour
intensive. Also, I like to look at a reinstall as a chance to clean up
all the cruft that has accumulated. So perhaps just blindly copying over
the packages you had on before, it might be better to look at the ones
you use regularly, and just install those.

exactly! that is why I prefer pkg list instead. i have a pretty fast network
but not much space.
