Have a look at this blog post and program:

  Managing OpenBSD installed packages declaratively
  https://dataswamp.org/~solene/2022-05-05-openbsd-declarative-packages-with-pkgset.html

That's sure one idea, to have a config file (that's the
"declarative" part) and then a script that converts that into
commands of/to the traditional package manager to setup the
system in accordance ...

Anyone has that for Debian and Debian-like systems?
