Subject: exporting a package and everything it requires

I have a machine that has installed all of the packages I want to
install on another machine. (To be precise, it's kde.) I know I can
do 'pkg_tarup kde' to get a tarball; it will also list a number of
other packages that it requires. Those, in turn, will require other
packages which I'll need to package up. Is there any easy way to start
with a package name and get everything that's needed? I suspect that
pkgdepgraph can do it, but I haven't figured out the proper option(s)
and/or scripts.
