Do you really want a list of all the packages installed on your system
or, if you use aptitude to resolve dependencies, do you want a list of
packages that you specifically wanted installed (and forget about those
installed merely to resolve dependancies?
If the latter:
#aptitude search '~i!~M'
That's installed (~i) but not (!) automatically (~M).
Its a much shorter list.
