The easier way of doing that is using the list of packages you have in /etc/setup/installed.db. You can even copy that over to another machine of the same architecture, merge it with the local installed.db by setting the package version of any package missing in the local installed.db to 0.0-0 and just fire up setup and it will install all the missing packages (plus update the ones already there if necessary).
