Hi,
dpkg --get-selections > file
and
dpkg --set-selections < file
will only _install_ packages installed on "source" machine,
it will not purge any packages on the "target" machine which
are not installed on the "source". Thus the packages on "target"
might be a superset of those on "source".

copy pacakges_on_installed_machine to desired_packages_on_uninstalled_machine
cat desired_packages_on_uninstalled_machine | dpkg --set-sel
