The script should probably check whether dependent packages are built from the 
same src.rpm:

$ python pkg-provs-tree-view.py  --enablerepo=rawhide fwbuilder
fwbuilder - 2.1.14-1.fc8.i386 [cmd line]
 \_  fwbuilder-ipf - 2.1.14-1.fc8.i386 [1: fwbuilder = 2.1.14-1.fc8]
 \_  fwbuilder-pf - 2.1.14-1.fc8.i386 [1: fwbuilder = 2.1.14-1.fc8]
 \_  fwbuilder-ipfw - 2.1.14-1.fc8.i386 [1: fwbuilder = 2.1.14-1.fc8]
 \_  fwbuilder-ipt - 2.1.14-1.fc8.i386 [1: fwbuilder = 2.1.14-1.fc8]
