      Hi. The raspbian images comes with all these programming software and other stuff. Is it possible to install pixel/lxde desktop on retropie with all these stuff? If it's not then should I install jessie/stretch and retropie on top of this?

            @Krisu you should be able to re-add anything via synaptic package manager. see https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=223856

              @dankcushions I didn't think about that, thank you.
              I've found something like this:

              https://n8henrie.com/2017/09/list-of-default-packages-on-raspbian-stretch-and-stretch-lite/

              Is it possible to install everything from this list automatically (I mean not by typing sudo apt get for every different package)?
