No I would not. I have frequently asked WHY distros exist when a good
solid one like Debian can be set up like the "new distro" in only a few
minutes.
But lets not let the truth get in the way of a typical COLA lie and
slur.
And heres how I did it on new ubuntu machines: (you snipped it in your
reply).
,----
| #!/bin/bash
| # restore-packages - bash script for Ubuntu.
| # Script to restore Ubuntu packages from a package list
| # generated by the partner script save-packages
| # August 07 Hadron.
| packagesfile=$1
| if [ "$1" = "" ]; then
| packagesfile=$(hostname)"-installed-packages.txt"
| echo "No filename specified so using default filename to restore packages - " $packagesfile
| fi
| sudo dpkg --set-selections < $packagesfile
| sudo dselect update
| sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade
| echo "Done!"

So once again you are proven to be a liar.
