Hello Nils,

if we go -> "Save Markings As" and make a choice "Save full state,
not only changes" in the saving dialog, we get saved file with :
-----
xserver-xorg		install
libchromexvmcpro1		install
popularity-contest		install
x11-apps		install
libmono-addins-gui0.2-cil		install
mii-diag		install
kpdf		install
bluez-gnome		install
libevas-engines		install
......etc

in it. So, I think "Save full state....." does the trick.

Best regards!
