Th epatch you're talking about was to "use" the list or to "generate"
it?

I did some experiments a few days ago and got a good result while
building last man-db (whose source include a list of the output of 
dpkg -l  on its source-dependencies:

:r!cat /home/work/man-db/man-db-2.3.10/debian/source-depends
 (yes I use vim to write my email :-)

sudo strace -f -etrace=file -o ../trace.69h -q -a80 debian/rules binary 2>&1 | \
	tee ../log.69h

cat ../trace.69h | grep -v ' = -1 ' | awk -F\" '{ print $2 }' | grep -v '^/tmp/' | \
	grep -v '^/dev/' | grep '^/' | grep -v "^$PWD" | grep -v '/var/lib/dpkg' | \
	sort -u >../trace.filt.69h

for j in `cat ../trace.filt.69h`;do test -f $j && realpath $j;done | \
	xargs dpkg -S 2>/dev/null | awk -F: '{ print $1 }' | sort -u | xargs dpkg -l
