i started to answer it and then thought better. i know what you asked and mean yet i just trial and error till i found what works for me re:
rpm -qa | grep whatever yum whatprovides yum install yum remove
etc and my servers among the "other" things you are asking or implying.
Same here, and unfortunately I take the same approach to reading the documentation, just hunting for details when I need them. I was hoping that the package groupings and a way to browse them was documented somewhere and I had just missed it. You can use synaptic to wade through the individual packages, but where do you find the overview/detail of what you get in the groupings?
