it is funny that the directory structure would be the same if it isn't used on 2007.
say?
Mine shows:
Dir::Cache "var/cache/apt/";
Dir::Cache::archives "archives/";

Nokia-N800-39:/# apt-config dump | grep Cache
-sh: apt-config: not found
Mine can not find the apt-config executable. Now that is odd..

Did you try installing something today via repository and checking /var/cache/apt/archives immediately after downloading?
It has to store em some place! I just think they're being nuked at some point afterwards.

also i have os2008(release) and i have nothing into /var/cache/apt/archives
i've see that ONLY apps installed via "apt-get install" go there, other installed via
application manager does not.

You have to enable Redpillmode, then you'll get a new checkbox called "Clear apt cache" in your Programmanager's options dialog. I think this might be the solution.

The clean way to get the list of installed package and transfer the list to another machine and install this list is with this:
dpkg --get-selections > list.txt
then to sync the list on another device:
dpkg --set-selections < list.txt
Yes, in theory it's as easy as this
dpkg --get-selections > list.txt
then to sync the list on another device:
dpkg --set-selections < list.txt

any way to get only applications i've installed and then download only
all the needed packages on disk ?
thanks

Otherwise, application installed by user=application currently installed - application initially installed.
Now you have to know which ones were initially installed...
What's the problem with getting the full list?
On to the next idea...
