[Trisquel-users] Synaptic package list export - selected only?

[newellrp1]

I know from reading an other thread someone linked (I think it was magic  
banana) that synaptic can export a list of installed packages. Does it only  
pick "selected" packages, or does it include all of the dependencies. Is it  
possible to only get the selected ones if the second case is true?

For me, a list that includes dependencies is useless. I don't care about  
dependencies, that is the package manager's problem. I only care about the  
software I asked the computer to install. If I used a complete list and  
selected all of the packages, I might have a lot of crap installed that I  
don't need.
