In addition, an `eclipse' group is listed in category `apps', a
`workstation' group is listed in category `base-system', but these two
groups are not defined in comps.xml.

I know that some packages only exist in one arch, e.g. apmd, s390utils,
etc, but what about the others? Do we really need to keep them in the
comps.xml file?


Best regards,
