You could use "yum grouplist" to show available groups:
yum grouplist
Then, use "yum groupinfo" to check on a group that likely provides what
you're looking for:
[root at rover ~]# yum groupinfo "Development Tools"
Loaded plugins: downloadonly, fastestmirror
Setting up Group Process
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* rpmforge: ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de
* base: mirrors.versaweb.com
* updates: mirror.sanctuaryhost.com
* addons: mirror.hmc.edu
* extras: mirror.dhsrv.com
Group: Development Tools
Description: These tools include core development tools such as
automake, gcc, perl, python, and debuggers.

Sounds like the group you want, so:
yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
should do the trick...
