Why not store a for every pkg how it got installed, as a direct human request or as a dependency? I maintain such list manually and when reinstall my machine, use that as an argument list to the yum to get the needed apps back into system. It's never perfect but close enough to be useful. Another way to housekeep a system could be the stat's output and Access time, but i guess some prelinker or something else kills that brilliant idea.
