--duplicates: Limit to installed duplicate packages (i.e. more package versions for the same name and architecture).

Installonly packages are excluded from this set.
--enhancement: Limit to packages in enhancement advisories.
--exactdeps: Limit to packages that require <capability> specified by –whatrequires or –whatdepends.

This option is stackable with –whatrequires or –whatdepends only.
