Sadly repoclosure would only work for EPEL-6 and 7 . I think it
stopped working after some changes were made to rpm after Fedora 21 or
so.. [Try running repoclosure on CentOS-8:


package: systemd-udev-239-13.el8.x86_64 from BaseOS
  unresolved deps:
    systemd(x86-64) = 239-13.el8
package: systemd-udev-239-13.el8_0.3.i686 from BaseOS
  unresolved deps:
    systemd(x86-32) = 239-13.el8_0.3
package: systemd-udev-239-13.el8_0.3.x86_64 from BaseOS
  unresolved deps:
    systemd(x86-64) = 239-13.el8_0.3
package: valgrind-devel-1:3.14.0-9.el8.i686 from AppStream
  unresolved deps:
    valgrind = 1:3.14.0-9.el8
package: valgrind-devel-1:3.14.0-9.el8.x86_64 from AppStream
  unresolved deps:
    valgrind = 1:3.14.0-9.el8

... it goes on and on.]

A new repoclosure tool would need to be written, then integrating it
with I think bodhi would be needed.
