Hi,

I've a question concerning show-installed (from yum-utils). This seems
perfect to me to get a comprehensive list of all packages.
As far as I can see it uses returnLeafNodes() which works for most cases,
I've found just one point where it doesn't work as expected. (in my opinion)

I have two packages (or perhaps some more) which reference each other
(circular reference), neither of them is shown up in this list, because
they are both no leaf-node. How would I adjust show-installed the best way?
I've thought about implementing something similar what "repoquery
--installed --whatrequires --recursive" does and looking for a self
reference in there and adding found packages to the list.

But I think this would have great impact on performance of the script, are
there any better ways? A build-in function, another yum-util, which could
list circular referenced packages?
I'm developer myself, but completely new to yum-api and python, so please
keep this in mind.

Thanks,
Harald
