How to backup and restore all installed snap packages?
I need to reinstall my Ubuntu 18.04 and I want to backup and restore all installed snap packages including all installation settings.
With snap list
I get the list of installed packages. However, the list is not in a suitable format for reinstalling all the packages. I need something like apt-clone
that would work for snap packages the same way it works for apt installed packages.
Solution 1:
You can save installed packages using following code
snap save
And then all the installed packeges will be zipped with data to /var/lib/snapd/snapshots/
