I posted a possible workaround to the suse-linux mailinglist some time 
ago, maybe it helps ;-)

You can save the package list with
    rpm -qa --queryformat "%{name}\n" > paketliste

Copy the file "paketliste" to the target machine and install all listed 
packages with
    xargs yast2 -i < paketliste
(Of course, you have to setup the installation sources in YaST before.)

To optimize the operation, remove the already installed packages from 
the list:
    rpm -qa --queryformat '%{name}\n' | grep -Fvxf - paketliste \
    | xargs yast2 -i


Disclaimer: This is completely untested!
(If you test it, please report back ;-)


Regards,

Christian Boltz
