Quick reply...
As far as I can remember, aptitude can install applications (such as panorama) from the store (while apt-get fails at such an attempt). I can guess that aptitude can download the .deb from the store too, then.
Best wishes.

Yes you are right :)
O. Catch your OVI store application

problem is i was looking at screenshot of tweaks, and it is quite old so no O tweak there.

Here is your ansver to that question...loog in ovistore with opera browser, the settings of your n9 should be set i preferences...chose the app you like, then in browser addres right after the number like .....474733***/download <---write download then you'll get option popup to save....only for free software.

That's why for all apps (free/non-free) its best to use N9QTweak...

osa --get packagename > packagename.deb

Vesuri, is there any way to replace packagename with all packages so that all installed apps can be backed-up in one go? Then it wouldn't need the usage of BackDeb...

Thanks!

Thank you! Looks perfect, i will try soon.
So this hack works also in case i update any application already installed via application manager or only via terminal?

Re: How to save .deb file from store?
 
It works in both cases, as it activates before the 'dpkg install' operation, whether it comes from CLI or GUI.

The same do "Catch Apps" button from N9QT, or from tweak O ;)

Re: How to save .deb file from store?
 
using the osa command:

Code:
osa --packages > packages.txt
The above would give a list of all packages installed from store...

Try

Code:
for package in `osa --packages | grep Package: | awk '{ print $2 }'`; do osa --get $package > $package.deb; done

works flawlessly :)


Thanks!


Edit:

One last request :D,

When you do osa --packages all the packages downloaded from Store with their control files appear so maybe its possible to save as package_version.deb?
