Has anyone written a tool to visualize RPM dependencies? Preferably graphically, and I'm primarily interested in the size of each dependent package. +-------------------+ | foo (1.3MB) | +-------------------+ | | +-----+ +------------------------+ | bar | | baz (2 MB) | +-----+ +------------------------+ | | | | | I found rpmgraph[1] but it only does dependencies, not size.
