I don't know why the --recursive option doesn't work for the
command on source repos (but I haven't really looked to see
if that is intentional either).  Perhaps using that requires
that you don't disable the non-source repos?

I think many of the haskell apps have a BuildRequires on
ghc-rpm-macros, which has a Requires on ghc-compiler.

It might be handy to add the --tree option to see a little
better how the deps relate.  That output is large, but piped
to a pager or saved in a file, it can be useful.
