I've created a perl script which does this somewhat. It is rough - my first stab at it. And it doesn't handle more than one provider very well.
Here it is.use strict;
use warnings;
#use List::MoreUtils;
#use Util::Any;
# Read in all the packages
my @packages = (@ARGV);
# Process each set of packages.
my $p=0;
while ($p <= $#packages ) {
# Get the list of packages from p to the end.
my $next = join(' ',@packages[$p..$#packages]);
print "Processing packages $next ($p-$#packages)...\n";
$p=$#packages + 1;
open(DEPS, "yum deplist $next|") || die "Failed $! $next\n";
chomp(my @lines = <DEPS>);
my $count=0;
while ($count <= $#lines) {
if ($lines[$count] =~ /dependency: (.*)/ ) {
my $dep=$1;
$count++;
my @providers = ();
while ($count <= $#lines && $lines[$count] =~ /provider: (.*) (.*)/) {
push(@providers, $1);
$count++;
}
foreach (@providers) {
my $provider=$_;
if ($provider !~ /i386/) {
if (!grep {$_ eq $provider} @packages) {
# Add it
print " Adding package $provider\n";
push(@packages, $provider);
}
last;
}
}
} else {
$count++;
}
}
}
# Print the results
print "\nPackages:\n";
my @sorted = sort @packages;
foreach (@sorted) {
print "\t$_\n";
}

That is pretty much exactly what I am doing, however, I need to know how to get the list of packages.
