Johnny,
I certainly agree with the idea that the OP should consider making a
repo of the additional application, but I also understand why something
like remastersys is useful, being that I use A/V Linux for its
particular (and not-Internet-connected) purpose in my multitrack
studio. There's more to a system than packages, and not all
customizations are kickstart-able. And many uses for such don't need
Internet, and a spun ISO is needed for those instances.
The OP asked a pretty specific question, and the answer to his specific
original question is probably that revisor will do the closest job to
what remastersys does of any tool currently available in the CentOS world.
And, in fact, remastersys is no longer readily available from its
author. A donation can get the sources, but it was, prior to April
2013, easily obtained and used.
I'm not so sure that ISO's are 'so 20th Century now' though. But that's
a different discussion. As a reference, see the WSUSOfflineUpdate
project for Windows.....
