I added these commands to my .profile file so the backup will even get a 
list of current installed packages:

dpkg --get-selections > .BackupInfo/Package.list
rm -rf .BackupInfo/etc-apt/*
cp -R /etc/apt/* .BackupInfo/etc-apt
apt-key exportall > .BackupInfo/Repo.keys 2> /dev/null

So those run every time I log into my user account.  The nightly backup 
(deja vu) sends it's output to a NAS sitting on the network. That NAS is 
backed up regularly to off-line storage in one of my out-buildings.
