Software applications (3rd party)
by Stephen Myall · May 3, 2014
Aptik is a utility that allows you to simplify the re-installation of application/packages in a clean installation of elementary OS. Re-adding all your repositories can of be a long and tedious process. Aptiks aim is to save all this work by making a full backup of your applications , all PPAs that you have added , and then restore it a new installation . How good is that?
open the terminal [ctrl]-[alt]-[t] and copy and paste the following:
Choose the directory where your backup is to be stored
You have four options, you can back up your repositories (PPAs), specific applications downloaded packages with APT, and themes and icons.
Identifies repositories & PPAs with a color code and whether you have installed packages (or not) from that repository
You have full control on what you want to select
