Dear Hans, 😁


thanks again for your help.

 > if you can see in this file, which packages are postinstalled or 
dependent [...]

Alas that doesn´t seem to be the case.

As an example I post-installed the fish-shell and the respective entry 
simply is:

/fish                                            install/

, so basically like all the other entries as well.

But your suggestion of making two files - one after the initial OS setup 
and then another one after having done my post-installs - and then
comparing these two files really makes sense. Thanks for pointing that out.

Thanks also for your personal suggestion referring to a minimal install 
which is very good indeed and seems to be best suited for my purposes.

Your help is highly appreciated; thanks so much again.  😁

Many greetings
Rosika
