master:
rpm -qa --qf '%{name}\n' | grep -v kernel | sort | \
uniq > /tmp/rpmlist.txt
clone:
do a minimal install
scp master:/tmp/rpmlist.txt .
yum install rpmlist.txt
Then on the clone, run:
rpm -qa --qf '%{name}\n' | grep -v kernel | sort | \
uniq > /tmp/rpmlist.txt
diff -u rpmlist.txt /tmp/rpmlist.txt
and
rpm -e any strays present on the clone,
and note anything not present, and repair to taste [this can
happen over time as the items in a point respin change, or if
a non-CentOS archive is used]
