I *do* understand what it's being done.

I don't think you've read my question too carefully. I have the list of 
the previuosly installed rpms (/var/log/rpmpkgs), I know what should I 
do with it, but I don't have the rpm files in themselves and mirroring 
8+ repos locally is not very appealing. Please read my question again. 
Any help would be most welcome.
