there should be a "parent" RPM that depends on all the RPM's that you own... and this would work!
in other words, it would have to figure out what you have installed, create this fake package on the fly, and then go from there solving depencies. A good exercise in Perl... but, there are a million other solutions for this of course... NOTE: I usually just start installing the lowlevel stuff by hand and let urpmi work it's magick (I guess I'm not the only one doing that... all these guilty eyes reading this...). For instance: urpmi gnome-desktop.... the following 3000 packages need to be removed for others to be upgraded.... huge list... I'm done.
