I want a list of applications which I have installed only using

sudo apt-get install

and nothing else. I came across this post: How to list all installed packages

but the answer lists all installed packages (including ones which were pre-installed and weren't installed using 

sudo apt-get install

).

as the apt-man --help states

showmanual - Print the list of manually installed packages

apt-mark showmanual

So, it should just give a list of explicitly installed packages without all of the dependencies included due to these packages being installed.

  • It outputs packages installed as a result of upgrading the system as well. Is there a command which would only show packages minus the system packages? – arjun Aug 18 '17 at 08:09
