unison
opensync, syncml, multisync, and other related packages to sync my phone 
with evolution
compiz config
gtweakui
filezilla
ssh client
ninan - nzb downloader not in repos
eclipse, tomcat and other packages for java development
subversion

in addition i install the following on 1 machine at home, acting like a 
server
ssh server
mythtv
mpd
icecast2
lamp server
jinzora

I am sure there are more apps that i have forgotten. and others I have 
left out on purpose as they are on a machine I don't do fresh installs 
on, but are a must have:
