Apt backup?

[9to5cynic]

Wondering if anyone knows how I would go about backing up everything apt has downloaded?

I installed debian the other day and noticed that network manager wasn't installed. And being as I don't have real internet, only my phone... And damn, I can't seem to get anything to connect (shop or statically)... So i'm thinking that I'll be giving debian some more space, and a reinstall is in order. Anyone know how I could backup network manager and the dependencies to a flash drive. Last time I got everything by chrooting into debian from Ubuntu.

Thanks, and hope this makes sense.

APTonCD, not sure why but for some reason I dismissed that program this morning.... I'll give it a go.

Thanks.
