I've knocked up a quick script that downloads backup deb files for all packages that have been installed on your device from nokia.com and also those that have been removed (not purged). Note that this not only downloads deb files from the Ovi Store but also all system packages too (which is a good idea as we are going to lose these too). The deb files are downloaded to /home/user/MyDocs/deb/archives so make sure you've got plenty of free space available in MyDocs. I've tested the script on both Fremantle and Harmattan.
TMO doesn't allow the attachment of sh files so I'm pasting the command to create the script instead. Just copy and paste it into a terminal and then run the resultant script as root. You'll need to kill any processes that may have a lock on /var/lib/dpkg before running this script. Don't worry about any package removal or upgrade messages you may see, no changes of this nature will be made as we are only downloading the deb files. Code:
cat << EOF > /home/user/getnokiadebs.sh && chmod +x /home/user/getnokiadebs.sh |

@wicket,
I had a teensy-weensy problem with your script, it complained about the pipe symbol on the for line. Un-escaping bacwards apostrophes fixed it. Could it be a busybox vs. busybox-power issue? While I was at it, I made another small modification, to allow the user to specify the target directory as a parameter. The default is still as per your post. Here is my update, highlighting the changes. The bold green bits are added, bold blue are changed and the Code:
EDIT: Just finished. It took about 3.5 hours and the overall size is nearly 2GB because of all the mobile-maps* packages. Without them it's only about 146 MB and a much shorter time. Mind you, your size is bound to vary a bit since my set is quite heavily modified. . |

pichlo, I didn't intend for this to be pasted into an editor but rather directly into the terminal, thus why the first and last lines are included and the back quotes are escaped. :p Sorry for the confusion and thanks for the enhancement!
One good thing about the script is that if it fails, you can rerun it and it won't redownload anything that has already been downloaded. It failed for me on Harmattan the first time I ran it after downloading a >300MB deb and pkgmgrd regrabbed the lock file. |
