I have some installed programs on Ubuntu on my remote server (which I have root access to it). Now I need to install a fresh Ubuntu on some other machine/server, and I don't want to go through installing all these programs and dependencies again(mysql, rails, rvm, nginx, etc...). So is there a way to capture current state of Ubuntu programs and configurations and copy it to another Ubuntu installation ?
