What you are looking for has grown to AutoYaST
How do I find it?
Is this a part of YAST or a seperate application?
AutoYaST is a separate package but integrated with YaST
I was hoping to be able to capture all the packages on an installation and save it for later. I'm playing with distributions and would like to keep a record of what I installed on it in case I want to go back.
There is a backup in YaST which writes all changed files from all installed packages plus all other files not belonging to any packages from locations you specify ans also creates a configuration file usable from AutoYaST. That backup can be restored from YaST (if your system is still usable) or can be used in AutoYaST to recreate your system from scratch. Regards, -Kastus
