That's not what I really need Patrick. I need to get the full
dependency resolution from a pattern.
For example, let's take the Base System pattern
(base-10.n-build.arch.pat), it depends on other patterns (yas2_basis
and sw_management_pattern I think), and on lots of packages.
I want to get an easy way, a tool or something else, that for a
pattern, it shows all the packages it need, resolving even the
dependencies of other packages or patterns it depends.
I think it is what ZyPP does, but I haven't found a shell command or
tool to use the ZyPP resolver as I need.
I'm not sure if there is some Python binding or something like, as I
use Python a lot for system administration, but I'm not a software
developer neither I know how is the ZyPP API.
Now asking to Andreas, if there is no such tool, then a new one could
be created.
Thanks a lot!
