The addition of one software package can virtually break your Ubuntu install. The solution that was proposed to me was to have many machines, each running a specific configuration. This is unsatisfactory for people who are resource limited, and in possession of only one (1) Linux machine. Is there a way to save package configurations in a database or flat file so upgraded packages/repositories can be rolled back?
