Take a look at debsums to find changed files. As to new files...<br><br>(for i in `dpkg --get-selections | cut -f1`; do dpkg -L $i; done;) | sort | uniq<br><br>will get a list of files.<br><br>find can be used (ie: find / | sort ) to get a list, then you could use diff to figure out whats different between the two files. A regular expression grep could be used to figure out just the additions or subtractions between the two files.<br>

How can I find all the files which are not in packages in ubuntu?<br>
<br>
I'm doing some backups, and want to only back up my data, not parts of the OS.<br>
I think I can just backup /home and /etc, but I want to make sure I didn't<br>
miss anything. I'm also curious about the results.<br>
<br>
I googled it, and found a solution for redhat/rpm:<br>
rpmfind --unknown<br>
<br>
What would be the apt equivalent? Pun intended.<br>
