Scenario:

I try to install an .rpm (via 'rpm -Uhv <newpackage.rpm>') and find thatrequired dependencies are missing.

Can I leverage some mechanism (yum, up2date, something else?) toautomatically download the missing package dependencies automatically sothat I don't have to?


Is there some switch to the rpm command line to do this?

The only other answer I know is to manually 'yum' each package dependencylisted from the 'rpm -Uhv <newpackage.rpm>' command.


Thanks for any help,
-Matt
