Hmmm, a simple cat of those three files then, simpler than my idea!

And for the "system" I believe this depends only on the profile chosen, so this 
profile should be the same on each machine, or then I would have to generate the 
list of packages in each pc's "system"...  I don't see why they should be 
different so this should not be a concern.

Thanks!
