And I guess the other piece of this would be finding individual
packages that are not encompassed by the groups - or pulled in by
dependencies. Is there some database-like approach to take the full
list of packages, then reduce it to the minimal list of groups and
top-level packages to pull the rest in? It probably will work to
hand the raw list to yum but I'd like to make an understandable list
in a script even if the packages had been added piecemeal in the first
place as someone noticed the need for them.
