Is there a package that will back up everything you would want to keep on your system (home folders, evolution settings, firefox favorites, package listings, software sources, ect) and then when you restore, its as simple as hit restore and when its done, its as if you went back in time and no further work is needed other than perhaps a reboot?

I used pyback this last time and it seemed to work out alright, but it certainly wasn't all done when I hit restore and it finished. I then had to move folders into my new home, and then also had to install packages that were previously installed, ect ect.

Thanks!

Can't swear to it, (but I'll swear at it if you ask me to!) but I believe back-in-time works well.

It has a gui for kde and gnome.
