[opensuse-autoinstall] Synchronizing a set of installed packages with another system

Hi all
I am trying to upgrade a bunch of OpenSUSE 10.2 PCs to 10.3 using autoyast.
The normal upgrade has failed in my test machine (lots of missing
dependencies that, when ignored or resolved, resulted in a broken
installation) so I need to make a fresh 10.3 install and synchronize
it (add missing packages and delete unwanted ones) with a list of
packages installed in my 10.2 installation.
I can "rpm -qa >> rpms.txt" in my test machine and clean it to suit my
needs, but I don't know how to apply that list to an already installed
system.
What I am looking for is info/help on how to get the list of packages
(in fact applications and their dependencies) installed in my test
system, and how to replicate them to a fresh OpenSUSE 10.3
installation.
Thank you all
