That package is included so that if you are doing an install off off the ISOs and will NOT EVER be updating the install (not a good idea if it is connected to the internet), then you can use system-config-packages to install more software. Here is the note: The system-config-packages utility can ONLY be used if you do not update any packages and install only from the CD/DVD. This utility will fail if updates have been done.
