Put something like this into your user's .procmailrc to split a into
individual messages:

These are package dependencies and listed in the rpm itself:

$ rpm -q --requires gcc
binutils >= 2.9.5.0.41
cpp = 2.96-85
glibc-devel
/sbin/install-info
/bin/sh
...

When you go and download individual packages from Raw Hide (e.g.),
you need to satisfy any of those dependencies. That means, you
either need to query a package for its dependending packages or you
know what you need to get without querying the packages. :)
